9th Annual Corporal Mark Goyet
Memorial Foundation Golf Classic - Sept. 8, 2023
The Corporal Mark Goyet Memorial Foundation Golf Classic is the foundation’s core fundraising effort each year, and the generosity of players and donors has funded over $140,000 in scholarships over the past decade. In the past four years we were able to hold the team fees static, however this year we have been forced to increase our player fees to be able to cover the significant increased costs associated with the tournament. We understand that given the impact of inflation in the economy at large there are those that may have reservations about the increase in tournament fees and wanted to make clear that the foundation receives no increase in margin. We take in less than $18 per player. Over the years the event has continuously matured from the typical charity tournament with raffles and auctions to one more focused on community. We intentionally chose to schedule the tournament on the Friday nearest 9/11 to honor the event that led to the call to serve for many, including Mark. This tournament was started to memorialize Mark’s sacrifice and service, but for many, it provides a much more significant day of remembrance. For those that are unable to play this year due to the increased costs, we thank you for your past support and hope that you find your way back to our family. For those that continue to participate in this special event, we look forward to seeing the sea of red shirts on September 9th, and the comradery and community that makes this such a special event, and fills our hearts. Thank you, Ray and Martha
2022's date for the Golf Classic has been scheduled for September 9th, 2022. We are thankful for the dedication of our many long-term sponsors and attendees, and look forward to seeing you all this fall. We welcome all participants, old and new, and thank you for your continued support of the CMGMF.
