The 9th annual Jacques A. Rautio Memorial Golf Tournament was held at
Greenview Country Club in West Monroe Sunday July 30 2006.
Dan Green and his grounds crew had their work cut out for themselves as they pressed on too recover from near tornado strength winds the day before. Chain saws and tractors cleared fairways of trees so the tournament could be played.
The Central Square Community Church coordinates this tournament each year. As a result they donate scholarships to the Fort Brewerton Greater Oneida Lake Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Fund. You can view these student scholarship winners on the chamber’s web site at: http://www.oneidalakechamber.com/.
This years winning team was from Dignity Plus Home Health Care from Central Square. Donald Chad and Tom Penoyer along with Jack Yorkey teamed up for a 63. That was 8 under par. Two teams turned in a 67 creating a tie for second place. Dumac Business Systems of East Syracuse golfers Howard and Ryan McCarthy teamed up with Shawn Burke and Kevin McElwee. The second foursome that also shot 67 were Jon and Ron Bowerman George Brodeur and Mark Lohr representing Applied Food Equipment Marketing from Rochester.
In addition to the 18-hole captain and crew tournament the Amanda Fisher Pre Tournament competition was also held. The winner of the Chipping Tournament was Jack Yorkey. Jack Chipped to 7 inches from the flag. The putting contest had 4 winners in a field of 100 contestants. John Benedict Jim Chapin Bill Gass and Brian House took the honors.
