The 18th Annual 50+ LifeStyles Golf Classic was held September 14 under its usual conditions: nearly perfect skies and temperatures — and just a breath of wind. Nearly 300 golfers participated, split over the Timber Point Country Club (with the cooperation of PGA Pro, Andy Carracino) and the West Sayville Country Club (with the cooperation of PGA Pro, Fred Gipp), with the after-rounds dinner — catered deliciously by Lessing’s — held at Timber Ridge.

Sponsored by Bristol Financial Services, Prime Time Travel Club, White Star Tours, WRCN 103.9 Classic Rock, My Country 96.1 FM and Cruise to Anywhere.com, the tournament also featured raffles and giveaways donated by the sponsors as well as Martha Clara Vineyards, Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund, Doris McGovern, Annette Eaderesto LLC, VEP Computers, New Bridge Coverage Corp. and Laser Central Alarms.

Although trophies and prizes were awarded in a variety of age categories, both men’s and women’s, as well as for both courses, Overall Winners were: Tom Barrett and Dave Hungerford (tie) and Kathe Palermo for West Sayville; and Henry Pazera and Sandy Dyer for Timber Point.
