Wow, what a day. On Saturday, October 20th Christy's Crew hosted our 1st Annual Golf Tournament at Ravenwood Gold Club here in Victor. We had 14 foursomes compete for the title of 1st ever Christy's Crew Golf Tournament Champions, and had another 10-15 people join us for dinner, so what an amazing turnout!
Although it was a bit cold and breezy, the rain stayed away and everyone had a great time! Here is crew member Shannon Hersh, sinking a putt. I will note that our foursome, filled with 4 Christy's Crew Members, did NOT come in last. :)
Here is one of the pairs from the winning foursome. Franco Carusone and Chuck Trudeau.

If you have never been to a Christy's Crew function, you need to. We really do know how to have a great time. The family and friends of the crew really make it so awesome. Like this foursome...reminding everyone to do their breast exams!
One of the Tournament Directors, Ben Briggs, who also filled the duties of Master of Ceremonies. We raffled off a TON of awesome stuff donated from local businesses!

And...we can't forget the last place team!! The officially called themselves the Christy's Crew Loser Crew, but they where not losers!! I guess this group from Kodak has a way of losing all of the golf tournaments they enter, but we where glad to have them! The members of the losing foursome where, Christy Palmiere (the Christy of Christy's Crew!), Karen Hermance, Sharon Guzman, and John Scott (not pictured).
