Steve Farley Memorial Golf Outing

Gleneagles Memorial 2007 Golf Tournament

It was a great day for golf on July 20, 2007 at Gleneagles Country Club in Lemont, Illinois, for the Fourth Annual Steve Farley /Gleneagles Men’s Club Memorial Golf Outing.  Thirty eight participated in a scramble and 42 Men’s Club members participated in their regular playing while contributing to the fund with a chance at winning great raffle prizes and enjoying a great meal. Lucky Brian Olson won the two tickets on Southwest Airlines! The winners this year were Bob Nicholson Sr., Bob Nicholson, Jr., Larry Firenzi and Ken Kozlowski.  Hank Hines’ foursome (Hank Hines, Mike Hines, Rick Brock and Fr. Hugh) came in second.  The reverse from the year before!  Closest to the pin went to Mike O’Brien and longest drive went to John Leahy.  Nobody won the car for the hole in one! We would like to thank you for your very generous donation.  With your support, we raised just over $10,000!  Thank you so much for helping us honor Steve in such a meaningful way.  We will be able to award at least two scholarships this year; one to a student in the Professional Golf Management Program at Arizona State University and one to a Gleneagles Men’s Club family member who is a college student. There are many people to thank – Bob O’Neill for all his hard work in coordinating the Men’s Club from Gleneagles to participate; the staff at Gleneagles who worked so hard to make this event a success; all of those who participated and those who donated to the fund and were with us in spirit.  Most of all, we would like to thank TransUnion who matched us dollar for dollar this year.  We could not have been nearly so successful without their generosity. Save the date for next year – July 18, 2008!  You will receive more information after the first of the year for next year. Thank you again for your generosity.

2004 Golf Tournament

It was a perfect day for golf on November 20 at Western Skies Golf Club in Gilbert, Arizona, for the First Annual Steve Farley Memorial Golf Outing. Seventy-four of Steve's friends golfed, while the Farley Girls drove around in carts taking photos and selling raffle tickets and split-the-pot tickets. All were wearing a kelly green ribbon (the Kidney Cancer symbol) in memory of Steve.

There was a skins game which nobody won, and the money was donated directly back to the fund. The split-the-pot was won by Carol Bohling, Steve's sister, (was that a typical Steve thing?) and her half went directly back to the fund as well!

With the support of many, we raised almost $5,000! We are so grateful that we were able to honor Steve in such a meaningful way. We are now able to award a scholarship to a student in the golf program at Arizona State University, which we will present on Steve's birthday, February 4.

There are many people to thank - Bob O'Neill for all his hard work in coordinating the guys from Gleneagles to come out; Scott and the staff at Western Skies for all their hard work (it paid off in a big way!); Ed Hitchcock, Cory Phinney and Tom Sanders, who donated all their pro shop credits to purchase items for the raffle; everyone who came out and made it such a fun and successful event; and those who donated to the fund and/or were hole sponsors and were with us in spirit.
