Sebasticook Valley Hospital Golf Tournament a Success!
Date: 08/08/2022
Golfers gathered on July 30 at JW Parks Golf Course in Pittsfield for the Northern Light Sebasticook Valley 21st Annual Golf Tournament.
Net proceeds raised were more than $30,000 and will go towards educational programs designed to help the hospital recruit and retain the most qualified staff, as well as develop future leaders in healthcare.
“We want to thank our community for their generous support,” said Randy Clark, president. “The success of this fundraising event is possible only because of the many valued sponsors and participants who come together to support our hospital; we are grateful for our friends, neighbors, staff, businesses, and other organizations!”
Since the tournament’s inception in 2001, Sebasticook Valley Hospital has brought in nearly $1,000,000 to directly support projects such as the Women’s Health Center, operating room expansion, emergency services, radiology, courtesy van, 3D mammography, and 3D echocardiogram machine. Last year the funds generated by the tournament allowed the hospital to purchase a new ambulance for the medical transport team.
The hospital honored long-time supporter, Linda Cregnole, with special centerpieces at the event. Linda passed away earlier this year. She had participated in all 20 previous golf tournaments.
Thanks to major sponsors that included Sebasticook Valley Hospital Medical Staff; Nurse Anesthesia of Maine; Puritan; Sebasticook Valley Hospital Auxiliary; and Sebasticook Valley Federal Credit Union, and the many other sponsors, contributors, and volunteers who helped make the tournament happen!
