First and foremost, before you all read this great letter of appreciation from Brian Paveltich, we should all shake his hand and thank him and his entire family for their unwavering dedication to making the golf outing and the day a success each and every year! Without them there would be no one to thank. Now, please read the following in Brian’s own words:
Hey everyone we had another successful year for the Yorktown Elks “Tommy Pav” 2024 Golf Outing. The weather held out with a welcome spritz of rain during the course of play and besides it being a little hot it was a beautiful day. The course of play was good for the amount of golfers we had and we finally got a couple good compliments on the sandwiches believe it or not. There were many sponsors and people who helped year after year to put this outing together to make the outing a success that it has become today. I would like to thank a couple of people who came through to make this year special. First off, I want to thank Rich and Nick D”Andrea for donating the car from Park Ford year after year for the”hole in one” contest. Joe from Pizza and Pasta for the awesome food they provide every year back at the Lodge. Kenny Robinson from the Building and Construction Trades Council for his generous donation towards the dinner. Kevin Fennell from Cetera Investors for donating the bags for every player. Kevin Poe and Denis Winton from KDR Rental for their generous donation. Yorktown Funeral Home for another generous donation. I want to thank Ed Novak for donating almost all of the 50/50 winnings back to the Lodge. David Dempsey for donating most of his winnings from the Charity Hole back to the Lodge. Overall it was a successful day where we raised a lot of money for great causes. I again want to thank every golfer for respecting the course, for their awesome donations, and for another great outing.
None of this would be possible without the volunteers. Thank you so much to all of you for making this a memorable day. Thank you goes out to Bobby Kramer, Anton Kozlowski, Brian Wolfson, Steve Foley, Joe Magnani, Anthony Venditti, Larry McCarthy, Denise Potenza, Nicole Angelo, Tim Smith, Billy Graham, Jimmy Vignola, Maureen Pavletich, Dianne Pavletich, Bobby Pavletich, Hector Roy, Tracy Pags, Frank Pags, Joyce Pags, Eric Jaffe, Laurie Vize, Gina Nethercott, Matt Nethercott, Tom Browne, Don Smith, Rosemary Flynn, Steve Brawitsch, Doug Dickan, and Charlie Scheld.
Almost half of our donated money comes from sponsors, without your donations this Outing would not be possible. Thank you again for donating year after year without hesitation. You guys rock. Thank you again to everyone for honoring my dad and being a part of his Golf Outing.
Respectfully with Best Regards,
Brian Pavletich
