Eighteen teams took part in the TCAAF’s 17th Annual Golf Tournament which commenced at 1:30pm. It was a great turn out and fun was had by all who attended.
According to the Jadot Cup Chairman and TCAAF Director Terry Drummey “The 17th annual Jadot cup was a memorable tournament and dinner. Approximately 80 golfers came out this year, many of whom take part year after year and we would like to thank all of them for their continuous support. Our congratulation to this year’s winning team members: Mike Flynn, Billy Simonton, Marc Rawlins and Gervin Simmons (photo attached). A special thank you goes out to all the companies that donated to this worthy cause; Wine Cellar, Opus and Dave and his staff from the Provo Golf Club who helped to make our 17th year a huge success.”
Director of Golf at the Provo Golf Club, Dave Douglas highlighted, “This year’s Jadot Cup event and Silent Auction was a fun filled fundraiser for the Provo Golf Club in its 17 years of operation.” In conjunction with the golf tournament, the Wine Cellar hosted its 17th Annual Jadot Cup dinner at Opus on Friday, 9th June 2017. The sold out event was fully enjoyed by all with a menu of delectable dishes and intriguing wines. A silent auction was additionally held during the evening to raise further funds for the TCAAF. Mr. Galmo Williams, TCAAF Patron, said “Kudos to Tony Arata and the Opus team for hosting an unforgettable food and wine pairing. Their staff’s professionalism and courteous manner were unforgettable; A special ‘Thank You’ to our Silent Auction sponsors, like Shore Club , Hemingways and Amanyara (just to name a few) who donated excellent prizes which inspired wallets to open eagerly. We would also like to thank the patrons that bid generously on the silent auction prizes knowing that it was all going to a worthy cause.”
The weekend’s event not only helps to raise awareness of the TCAAF but also assists with funds towards its flagship project – the Edward Gartland Youth Centre in Downtown, Providenciales. The Centre which caters to young people between the ages of 10-18 years old has had over 1700 young people registered.
The funds raised by TCAAF assists the Youth Centre with their various extracurricular programmes and projects for the young people who frequent the Centre and the operational costs of the Centre. Being able to make a difference in the lives of the youth in the Turks & Caicos Islands through the various programs, including volleyball, basketball, tennis, art & craft, computers and dance to name a few, is very rewarding.
We would like to express heartfelt gratitude to our Silent Auction and Hole sponsors of the 2017 Jadot Cup, who helped make it a success:
