27th Annual MCLA Athletics Golf Classic to be held Sept. 23

NORTH ADAMS — The 27th annual MCLA Athletics Golf Classic will be held Monday, Sept. 23 at Wyndhurst Golf & Club in Lenox. The Golf Classic serves as a major fundraiser for the college’s Athletic Department. Over the years, the Classic has netted $25,000 to $40,000 annually to support MCLA’s student athletes.

“We are so grateful to our sponsors and participants, both those who are dedicated longtime supporters and those who are new this year,” MCLA Assistant Dean for Athletics & Recreation Laura Mooney said. “Their generosity and contributions allow the department to make facility upgrades and to enhance the student-athlete experience through new uniforms, team gear, and specialized equipment purchases. These items directly impact the recruitment, retention, and success of our students and student athletes.”

Each year, MCLA recognizes a deserving individual or business that has impacted MCLA Athletics. This year’s honoree is Jason Dohaney ’04, a financial advisor at MountainOne Investments and chair of the MCLA Foundation. This year’s Golf Classic premier sponsor is MountainOne.

The format for the event is an 18-hole scramble tournament. The entry cost includes greens fees, golf-cart rental, course snacks, a post-golf dinner, branded gifts, and more. Registration takes place from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m.; the tournament starts at 11 a.m., and the awards dinner follows at 5 p.m.

Other leadership-level sponsors of the event include Alton & Westall Real Estate Agency; Adams Community Bank; Gajda, Arnold & McConnell, P.C.; Aramark; Berkshire Health Systems; October Mountain Financial Advisors; Casella Waste Systems; Premiere Transportation; Greylock Federal Credit Union; Adams Plumbing & Heating; Dartmouth Health-Southwestern Vermont Medical Center; Smith Watson & Co.; JH Maxymillian Inc.; Berkshire Bank; 1Berkshire; Interprint; Freight Yard Pub; Becks Printing; Burnham Gold Real Estate; and Tea & Boba Lounge.
