Annual Golf Tournament celebrating 26th year

Now celebrating its 26th year, Salve Regina’s annual Golf Tournament will be held Monday, Sept. 21 at the famed Newport Country Club.

Through the participation of alumni, parents and corporate sponsors, the tournament has raised more than $1.5 million for scholarships over the years, benefiting thousands of Salve Regina students.

Monday’s tournament will begin with a noon shotgun start and be followed by an awards ceremony, dinner and raffle.

Edward O. Handy III, president of Washington Trust Company and parent of a Salve Regina alumnus, is the chairman of this year’s tournament. “With the Salve Regina students and community in mind, it gives me great pleasure to join the team for the 26th annual tournament,” he said. “I look forward to seeing you out there as we help make the Salve opportunity a possibility for so many deserving students.”

Sponsorship opportunities for the Golf Tournament are still available. For more information, call Kelley Coen, director of major gifts, at (401) 341-2355.
