2002 SLU COACHES MEMORIALGOLF tournament

As Nolan Gill said... "Looks like another success story!"

The 2002 SLU COACHES MEMORIAL tournament was an outstanding success! We had more players, more prizes, more sponsors, and raised more money that last year's tournament!

31 teams
43 sponsors
63 prizes donated
The final tally isn't in, but we estimate that we raised over $20,000!

We'll have a wrap up meeting Wednesday July 10th at 12:00 noon at Gino's restaurant. (Gino, please reserve the back room for us).
In the mean time Mike Varisco will be rounding up names and addresses of all tournament sponsors to send thank you letters and certificates. Email Mike at mike_varisco@generalhealth.org with any names and addresses that you have.
Special thanks to Superior Office Products - Randy Poche, Gerry Lane Buick, GMC, Pontiac - Cedric Patton, McDonalds of BR, Southpoint Volkswagen - Bobby Chenevert, and the SLU Alumni Association for being our "Presenting Sponsors".
Special thanks to Manda Fine Meats, Mockler Beverage, Wayne Stabler Catering, and Bluebell Creameries for the great food!
All of these people will have a special ad in the SLU ALUMNI NEWS to thank them for their support.

You know, other than a young person's parents, there is no person with a greater influence on a young life than a coach. It was a great tribute to honor the memory of Coach Bob Ricketts at this year's COACHES MEMORIAL. He was a great coach that had a positive impact on many young men's lives. We will continue this tradition next year.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and support of this year's SLU COACHES MEMORIAL! The best is yet to come!
