73 Players participated in the 2014 McCaffrey Friday Night Networking League. Playing 14 weeks throughout the summer, the league culminated today with its end of the year tournament and awards. On a gorgeous fall like da,y good friends and new acquaintances took to the course. Playing a scramble format, tournament winners scoring a respectable 8 under par were Kevin McCaffrey, John Scanlon andJay Fiebich. Second placed went to the team of Ray and Ryan Kish, Mike Malone and Bob Schindhelm, with the third place finish going to league regulars, Vin Racqula, Jodi Racqula, Maura Keenan and Nick Kroot. Long Drive winners were Ryan Kish and Marie Miszewski. Closest to the pin were John Scanlon and Maura Keenan. Organizers Kevin and Linda McCaffrey congratulate all of our winners.
Accumulating points each week for wins as well as for weekly contests, this year saw 2 first time league winners. Nick Kroot and Paige O’Brien were recognized as the 2014 League Champions joining the elite group which include two time winner, Brian Callahan, Marie Miszewski and Michele Varno.
Major contributors to the success of this year’s league included Michele Varno who was responsible for all of the scheduling and parings as well as for running the Webster Bank 50/50 Tee Raffle. Unfortunately, due to a back injury, Michele was unable to participate in the last weeks of the league and her absence was felt. Sharon Gialo filled in with the staging and 50/50 raffle and also produced our end of the year video montage. Brian Callahan of Schoff Darby Insurance, Devon/John Scanlon- new owners of Chick-fil-A and Marie Miszewski of the Regional YMCA donated major raffle prizes. Other contributors were Jim Bixby of Godfather Promotions, Judy Wilson of Minuteman Printing, Helen Curtin of Edward Jones, Paul Peloquin from Ridgefield Overhead Door, Shayne Newman of Yardapes and of course, Linda and Kevin McCaffrey or McCaffrey Professionals of Coldwell Banker.
Because there had been no winners of the weekly Webster Banker Tee 50/50 the pot had grown and the $560 winners share was finally won today by Susie Cammett.
It was a great year. Thank you to all of our enthusiastic participants.
