22nd New Jersey Golf Classic
On Monday, September 9th 2024, The Ireland Funds welcomed over 110 golfers to Bayonne Golf Club for The Ireland Funds 22nd New Jersey Golf Classic.
This year’s event honored Tom Kennedy & Tom Kennedy Jr. of ET Kennedy Coastal Construction. The Kennedy Family have been longtime friends and supporters of The Ireland Funds, and it was a great pleasure to recognize their participation and generous contributions over many years.
The sun was shining, and the guests had a great day out on the challenging links of Bayonne which were designed to rival the look and feel of the legendary links courses of Scotland and Ireland. Following a long day on the course, guests gathered for a cocktail reception and dinner in the clubhouse and enjoyed the panoramic views of New York Harbor.
Caitriona Fottrell, President & CEO, gave huge thanks to the Committee, Lead Sponsors: Charles P. Reagan, Baileys, ET Kennedy Coastal Construction, Tom Kennedy & Tom Kennedy Jr, and everyone who came out to support the work of The Ireland Funds.
Pat Tully hosted a lively auction with prizes including VIP experiences at the All-Ireland Senior Hurling and Football Finals which were kindly donated by the GPA, rounds of golf at some of the country’s most exclusive golf courses such as Hamilton Farm and Calusa Pines, as well as an all-inclusive experience at Mountain Creek Resort in Vernon, New Jersey.
