Celebrate the last day of summer golfing with local sports legends and help support The Nathaniel Witherell at the same time. The 9th Annual Witherell Celebrity Golf Invitational, organized by the Friends of Nathaniel Witherell, will take place on Wednesday, Sept. 21, at the Griffith E. Harris Golf Course.
The Invitational will be an all-star occasion. Participating golfers and area sports celebrities include: Jeff Feagles, former veteran NFL punter and Giants Super Bowl champion; Don Herrmann, former New York Giants and New Orleans Saints wide receiver; Wes Matthews, former NBA point guard and two-time LA Lakers NBA champion; former heavyweight boxing contender Gerry Cooney; and Willie Upshaw, former Toronto Blue Jays first baseman. Proceeds from the event will go toward supporting critical programs and services for Witherell residents.
“This is always a terrific event,” says David Ormsby, Chairman of the Friends of Nathaniel Witherell, “and it supports one of Greenwich’s community treasures.”
