Even the cool and damp weather could not discourage the spirits of over 190 golfers as they came together for the 4th Annual Humber College Classic golf at Glen Eagle Golf Club in Bolton yesterday.

Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, participants, and auction donors close to $125,000 was raised. Proceeds from the event will fund student awards and scholarships for Humber students.

The success of the tournament was made possible thanks to the work of many people, schools and departments from across the College. Special thanks are extended to the tournaments working group led by Alister Mathieson, Vice President, Advancement and External Affairs and including Paula Gouveia, Dean, School of Liberal Arts & Sciences, Wanda Buote, Principal, Lakeshore Campus, Lori Falvo, Manager, Marketing and Advertising, Ray Chateau, Director, Athletics, Krista O’Donnell, Chief Advancement Officer, Anna Samulak, Development Officer and Aurelia Kay, Events and Donor Relations Administrator. 

Thanks are also in order to all the staff and students who volunteered and helped out at the tournament including our very own Humber varsity golf Hawks, who helped lower golf scores and student musicians from the Humber Music program who entertained golfers after the scores were tallied and the carts were parked. Rudy Blair, Humber alumnus, graduate of the Broadcasting-Radio diploma program and radio personality, graciously donated his time as our emcee and auctioneer for the evening. 

Next year will be the 5th anniversary of the event and we hope we can continue to meet and with your help and support, exceed our goals. Stay tuned for more information and details to follow in the coming months.
