Smith Holds 18th Annual Alumni Golf Tournament


This year’s 18th Annual Smith School Alumni Chapter Golf Tournament, sponsored by Ernst & Young, brought out 20 teams to participate and compete on Thursday, Sept. 20, 2007. Even though there were clouds in the sky it was the perfect day to enjoy a round of golf with friends. The event started with a lunch, featured a silent auction and ended with a dinner that was sponsored by Outback Steakhouse. It was a day for alumni to reconnect with each other and raise money for the school, which goes towards supporting scholarships, programs and other initiatives of the school. The day was filled with laughter and smiles, even when a shot did not go as planned. The team from RSM McGladrey has been the defending champions for the past two years and won again this year. The team includes Joe Salisbury, Marc Thomas ‘86, Bob Billig '88, and Al Weber. (above)
