Five Westchester area clubs were awarded the Gold Club Award, having made contributions to the Fund of $50,000+. Sleepy Hollow and Scarsdale were recognized as the Willie Turnesa Outstanding Club Contributor and the Special Club Contributor, respectively. Anthony Sileo, Caddie Manager at Tamarack Country Club, was the 2017 recipient of the Outstanding Service Award-Caddie Programs. Martin E. Maleska '66, was awarded the Sally Francis Alumni Award.
