2009 Sandpiper Open Golf Tournament

EAES Signature Golf Event Raises Over $10,000 

On June 8, 2009 the 6th Sandpiper Open Golf Tournament took place at Greenhill Yacht and Country Club. Once again, we were very lucky with the weather with this outdoor event this year --- avoiding the rain and spotty electrical storms on the day of the tournament. Pepsi Cola donated beverages for the thirsty tournament players and a good day of golf followed by 18 holes of golf. Mike Callender, PGA Head Professional and staff at Green Hill Golf & Country Club offered their experience and resources to help produce a successful charity tournament. Thank you very much gentlemen. Several special event holes were on the course this year. There was a “longest drive” and “closest to the pin” hole(s). The possible prized hole-in-one 2009 white Jeep COMPASS was made possible by courtesy of Sherwood Motors. 

Sixteen businesses (see following list), including restaurants and golf courses, donating gifts that were awarded to winning teams and players --- the tournament continues to be the signature fundraising event for this agency. Participating businesses include:

 
  • Bay Creek
  • Beach Club Golf Links
