Save the Date: The Annual Golf Outing is May 15th
The annual BEF Golf Outing will be held on Thursday, May 15, 2025 at Centennial Golf Club in Carmel, NY. Sponsorships are available to local businesses and families.
We will be honoring one of the most philanthropic businesses in Brewster. John and Paul Aversano of Aversano’s Restaurant will be celebrated together! Aversano’s has helped dozens of non-profits in our community over the years and has been a big supporter of Brewster Schools. Dozens of current and past students have been employed there.
The proceeds will benefit the Brewster Education Foundation that support our graduating seniors with scholarships and provides grants for schools and faculty.
If you would like to play in this event or register your foursome, please go to www.bef.org. The cost to participate will be $195 per person and that includes golf, range balls, boxed lunch, drinks on the course and dinner with wine or beer afterwards. If you are unable to participate as a golfer, you can help support the BEF by being a sponsor or donating a raffle item.
