2012 Waban Golf Tournament @ Sanford Country Club, Sanford, Maine 

On September 28, the Sanford Country Club hosted the "Tee Up & Drive 'Fore' Waban's Special Olympians" Charity Golf Tournament. The tourney, sponsored by CGI Benefits Group of Hooksett, NH and MEMIC of Portland, ME, was a great success in spite of the forecasted rain as over 75 golfers came out to raise funds for Waban's athletes.

Armed with umbrellas and hot coffee, participants started up their golf carts and dispersed throughout the golf course, hoping to win one of several special prizes, including a 2012 Nissan Sentra donated by Marc Motors of Sanford for a Hole in One at Hole 16. No golfers were fortunate enough to ace Hole 16, but there were many winners when the game was over. (more)

Waban athlete Amy Reinholdtsen was

on hand to wish the golfers good luck.
