The NYS Forum raises more than $5,000 at Annual 2022 Spring Golf Outing

More than one hundred golfers participated in 18 holes of scramble golf at the Fairways of Halfmoon, raising funds for the Catie Hoch Foundation.

The NYS Forum hosted its first Annual Spring Golf Outing in Mechanicville, NY. on Friday, May 6. Over $5,000 was raised in support of the Catie Hoch Foundation, a great local charity established in memory of Catie Hoch, a Clifton Park girl who died from neuroblastoma, an aggressive form of pediatric cancer. This Foundation is an all-volunteer organization where every dollar delivers support for families, fun for kids and funds for a cure.

Teams participated in the afternoon event on a dry and cloudy day at the fantastic Fairways of Halfmoon. The golf scramble included morning refreshments at registration sponsored by Recorded Future, lunch at the turn, a post-golf reception sponsored by SHI, 50/50 raffle, and various contests for all players with prizes generously donated by sponsors.
