A message from our hosts, Mark Higgins, Ron Toper, Carrie Toper & Eric Platzer:
We are excited to invite you to the 13th Annual "Autism Open," scheduled for June 4th, 2022 at Shadow Lake Golf Course. Last year marked the 4th year in a row that we set a new record for funds raised! $21,500 in 2021 brought our total raised-to-date of more than $170,000, which was donated directly to our favorite autism support agency in Western NY, AutismUp. : ) Thank you for your continuous and generous support throughout the years.
This year’s event will include a dinner, awards ceremony and live auction, something we have missed the last two years and look forward to bringing back! Here are the tournament details:
- 8 AM and 1:30 PM shotgun tee times.
- 8 AM shotgun is $100 and includes 18 holes & lunch, with dinner as an option
- 1:30 PM shotgun is $135 and includes 18 holes, lunch and dinner included
- Or, play both AM & PM shotguns for $200 and spend the entire day at the Autism Open!
- We are limited to 144 golfers at each shotgun time, so if you know you want to play at a particular time, please register and pay to hold your spot. We will not be able to hold spots and will sell out quickly. We have had a waiting list for the past three years, which is one reason for the 8 AM shotgun.
- Register as a four-some, two-some, or single and tournament coordinators will match you with a group.
In addition to filling the course with golfers, we are always seeking raffle prizes, sign sponsors, lunch/dinner sponsors, beer sponsors, hole in one sponsors, etc.
