We are proud to extend the tradition, begun in 2012, of adding the names of the winning foursome to the Donald L. Henderberg Cup, our championship trophy named for the late, longtime friend and supporter of the Scholarship Fund.
The JayCW Golf Tournament has become a much-anticipated annual event that has matched golfers of all skill levels and competitive abilities, real or imagined, for a day of sport and stories hosted by the professional and friendly staff of Rome Country Club.
A 12:15 PM Shotgun Start begins this Captain-and-Crew Scramble tournament.
Your $75.00 per player entry fee includes golf, cart, and steak buffet dinner served at the clubhouse.
All players get a swing at winning the $25,000 Hole-In-One*, the Closest To Pin prize, as well as the option to enter the skins game and other mini-games... and the $5,000 Putt Contest*!
*$25,000 Hole-In-One and $5,000 Putt prize awards are subject to rules, terms and conditions. All tournament participants who have ever been a Professional are ineligible for both contests.
Golf hole sponsorship signs...
make it your business to get involved! We offer businesses the opportunity to be represented at the JayCW Golf Tournament with a sign posted on the course at Rome Country Club for all golfers to see.
In addition, a screen projection runs throughout the awards banquet with your same graphic cycling at 15-second intervals, for around 24 views per sponsor during the event. A $75 sponsorship will put your full-color logo on a sign and in the banquet display.

Teeing Up A Charity DriveFor those unfamiliar with this event, the tournament was conceived in 2009 by Jason’s uncle, Golf Committee Chair Jerry Closinski, as a constructive way for family and friends to gather and remember Jason, and to build upon Jay’s legacy by expanding the financial scope of the non-profit organization that bears his name.
The Golf Tournament provides a large portion of the total annual funds raised for the Fund to carry on its mission, thanks in no small part to the generosity of golfers and sponsors.
We are excited to offer another way to walk away from the JayCW Golf Tournament a winner... every player will get a chance sink a hole-in-one on the designated hole to win $25,000!
Take a swing, that's about all there is to it... the only remaining question is: What you could do with all that money?
Think it's impossible? We recorded the first hole-in-one in tournament history in 2016.
Thank you to The Guggis for sponsoring the $25,000 Hole-In-One contest, and for helping The Jason Christopher Wilhelm Scholarship Fund grow and prosper since its first day in 2008.

Thanks, Uncle Rog! $5,000 Putt ContestThe $5,000 Putt contest has become the highlight of entertainment for the day. NYE Automotive Group of Oneida [www.nyeauto.com] has graciously sponsored the contest once again, 'putting' more dollars to work for the mission of The Fund through reduced event expenses.
Here's how the contest works:
Whatever the outcome, it will provide a thrilling finish to a great day of golf for a good cause!
And The Course, Of Course"Rome Country Club is a strikingly beautiful and very challenging course carved from the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains that takes the golfer on a journey through tree-lined fairways, rolling terrain and over a variety of streams and ponds... the course plays to over 6800 yards from the back tees, but a manageable 6300 from the middle tees.. the practice facility boasts of a grass tee driving range, two putting greens and a short game range with bunker." romecountryclub.com
Wes and staff ensure a great playing course and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere in the clubhouse. You'll benefit from their personal efforts to make this a consistently successful event for our organization.
