The 8th Annual Golf Invitational was a HUGE success!!

A total of 17 teams took to the links at this year's event on August 21st at Manor Golf Course...and -- for the second consecutive year -- ParenteBeard LLC (formerly Beard Miller Company) served as Title Sponsor.  The law firm of Kent & McBride, Walmart (Wyomissing), and Quadrant Engineering were contributing Corporate Sponsors as well.  In addition, 27 Hole Sponsors helped Big Brothers Big Sisters exceed this year's goal of $13,000!!

Despite a two-hour rain delay shortly after play began, it turned into an exciting event for all.  Besides Greg Stuchel and his amazing Hole-In-One win (see home page), a new team to the event took the honors this year.  Big Brothers Darrell Kohler and his team from West Side Wood Products finished in 1st place with a score of 57 (13 under par)!  Second place went to Team Orr, followed by the Reading Eagle Press team in third.  While West Side Wood Products, a team from Feeney Funeral Home, and the team of DJ Starnes & Company were newcomers to the event -- the 8th Annual Golf Invitational featured a number of returning teams besides Team Orr and Reading Eagle.  They included:  ParenteBeard LLC (formerly Beard Miller Company), Godiva Chocolatiers, Lift Inc. Penn National Gaming, RAM Industrial Services, Giorgio Mushroom, and VIST Financial.

Jay Oglesby & Bob Fisher Chevrolet again sponsored the annual Hole-In-One contest.  While no one won the 2009 Chevy Cobalt that was up for grabs, we did -- as mentioned -- have our first ever Hole-In-One winner!  In addition, golfers had plenty of food and drink through the event...starting with the MarketFresh sandwiches donated by Arby's and ending with a delicious meal from Moyer's Catering.  Our deepest appreciation goes out to all of the above companies who helped make this year's event a success...plus to the numerous businesses who provided the agency with door prizes for our golfers.

And we -- of course -- can't forget those 27 Hole Sponsors without whom we would not have exceeded our goal.  They include:
