Genesee Cancer Assistance (GCA) extends our heartfelt gratitude to all of our sponsors, golfers, donors, and volunteers for your generous support of our 31st Annual Golf Tournament. Thanks to your commitment and generosity, this year’s tournament was our largest and most successful to date!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were fortunate to enjoy a beautiful day this past Saturday at Terry Hills, where 132 golfers and more than 40 dedicated volunteers came together for a day of golf, fun, and fundraising in support of cancer patients in Genesee County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Golfers began arriving around 10:30 a.m. to register and take part in a variety of exciting prize opportunities, including a 50\/50 raffle, door prizes, a Big Ticket Chinese Auction, and a Silent Auction. Players also enjoyed lunch from the Snack Shop before the tournament’s 1:00 p.m. shotgun start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out on the course, golfers tested their skills while participating in additional contests, including games of chance, a Spin-to-Win hole, and two Hole-in-One contests. The day concluded with a delicious dinner in the pavilion, followed by awards and prize presentations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
