Forrest G. Whitman Memorial Golf Tournament brings community together
Date: 08/16/2024
A full field of area golfers spent a memorable day at the beautiful Mount Kineo Golf Course on August 8 for the 2024 Forrest Whitman Memorial Golf Tournament, a major fundraiser to support patients in need and help students reach their educational goals.
The top gross finishers were Kineo View, North Branch #2, Seacoast Security, and Birdie Train. The top net finishers were North Branch #1, A.E. Robinson, Moosehead Marina, and Team Bradford.
Event sponsors included Ware-Butler Building Supply, A.E. Robinson, Indian Hill Trading Post, Plymouth Engineering. RE/MAX Infinity, and Dunbar & Brawn Construction. CA Dean Hospital also thanks Bill Willard, Marcel and Helene Dutil, and the entire Mt. Kineo Golf Club for their continued support and generosity.
All money raised at the tournament stays local to support patient care at CA Dean and provide scholarships for students at Greenville High School.
The tournament honors former CA Dean board member Forrest G. Whitman, a respected community leader who passed away in 2012. Several members of Whitman’s family attend the tournament each year, including Forrest’s son Burton Whitman.
“The tournament is great because of how it supports scholarships and the hospital itself,” he says. “The hospital means a lot to the community. If Forrest could see the new hospital, he’d think we have a real gem.”
Next year’s Forrest G. Whitman Memorial Golf Tournament is scheduled for Thursday, August 7, 2025. Registration will open in the spring of 2024.
