Your generosity helps ensure more children can experience all that C.Y.O. has to offer - because every child deserves to play.

What an incredible day at the 11th Annual Goemans Annual Memorial Event (G.A.M.E.) Tournament earlier this month! ⛳️💙

A heartfelt thank you to all G.A.M.E. Committee members, contributors, volunteers, participants, and the exceptional staff at Glencairn Golf Club for your support, effort, and commitment in making this year’s event another tremendous success.

We are proud to share that this year’s tournament raised over $200,000, bringing the total funds raised through G.A.M.E. to more than $1.4 million over the past 11 years in support of youth through the C.Y.O.

Year after year, this event demonstrates the incredible impact of community coming together with a shared purpose. Thank you for helping make a difference and continuing this remarkable tradition.
