On Monday, May 12th, Washington Health Foundation welcomed golfers and bocce players, to the 38th Annual Golf and Bocce Tournament at The Club at Castlewood in Pleasanton. The tournament brought together friends and community members to help fund state-of-the-art surgical equipment and technology for Washington Health’s Trauma Center and Operating Rooms.
For thirty-seven years, the golf tournament has raised money for Washington Health. The Foundation is excited to announce it was another successful year, with gross proceeds totaling over $125K!
The day featured a full day including an 18-hole golf tournament, bocce competition, barbeque lunch, gaming holes, raffle, cocktail reception, award ceremony and much more! The tournament was held on the prestigious Hill Course with 122 golfers enjoying a spectacular day, while seven bocce teams, battled it out on the courts for the championship.
For decades, the Washington Health Foundation Golf and Bocce Tournament has brought our community together, creating lasting memories while making a meaningful impact on Washington Health patients. The Foundation Executive Committee made the difficult decision to conclude the long-standing Washington Health Golf & Bocce Tournament, to shift focus to meet the Hospital’s most critical needs in the years ahead. This tournament was a fond farewell.
