The Greenwich Old Timers Athletic Association announces that the Twentieth Annual Branca Brothers Charity Golf Outing will be held on Monday, Sept. 11, at the Fairview Country Club.
Play will be limited to 124 golfers on a first come, first served basis. The registration fee is $400 per Individual Player, $1,600 for a Standard Foursome and $1,800 for a Corporate Foursome. Registration/Lunch begins at 11 a.m. with a Shot-Gun Tee Off/Scramble or Best Ball start at 1 p.m. (beverages will be served throughout the entire outing right on the course), followed by a Cocktail Hour, Dinner, Raffle and Door prizes, which will begin at 5 p.m. Through its entry fees as well as sponsorships, the golf tournament along with the annual dinner are the only two major fundraising events that the Greenwich Old Timers Association holds each year.
The Charity Golf Tournament began in 1997 and is named in honor of Joe and Jim Branca, founders of the Greenwich Old Timers Association. Their vision, of more than fifty-seven years ago, was to create an organization that would not just foster good fellowship, but would raise funds to promote and support youth athletes and sports programs in our community. Along with the promotion and support of youth sports programs, the centerpiece of the Branca Brothers’ vision was the college scholarship program. Since its inception in 1960, the Old Timers have awarded college scholarships to more than 111 student-athletes. In summary, the Greenwich Old Timers Association has donated over $1,500,000 in support of youth athletic programs and student athletes.
This year, interested players will be able to register online for the tournament at GreenwichOldtimers.org
