How do you test the resolve of the hundreds of friends and family that support your cause? Easy… throw a golf tournament on the rainiest day of the season and have them stand out in the weather for 5 1/2 hours!
I will never be able to thank the nearly 200 folks that came out in the pouring rain to support the “2nd Annual Tee Off For The Twins” Golf Tournament and Clambake held this past Saturday at the Foxfire Golf Club in Baldwinsville. Your resilience and commitment to this fight is unwavering and on behalf of Alison and the boys, I thank you.
As a result of your efforts we raised over $18,000 for treatment research while avoiding any possibility of sunburn on a day that will live as the benchmark for the true grit of Two Smile’s supporters.
Thank you to all of our wonderful sponsors for your support in a year that has been riddled with recession and cutbacks. Thanks to all the volunteers that made it all work so well. And most importantly, thank you to the event committee for your ability to create such a successful tournament while struggling with all the unforeseen obstacles. You are truly the “masters” of the game.
I look forward to next year’s tournament and hope you will all join us again to end Duchenne.
Thank you and continued smiles,
Matt
