Teeing Up A Charity Drive

For 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.

$25,000 Hole-In-One Prize

from The Guggis
​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.

$5,000 Putt Contest

The $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:
  1. Throughout the day, tournament golfers will have the opportunity to purchase tickets for a drawing to be held at the conclusion of the banquet dinner.
  2. Two names are drawn, and the two entrants attempt a 50-foot putt without practice shots or prior knowledge of the starting point or hole location.
  3. A successful putt wins that entrant $5,000! The other entrant still has an attempt to claim their own $5,000 prize if they sink their putt.
  4. If any portion of number 3 should occur, utter pandemonium breaks out and winner(s) attain legendary status with the greatest sporting moment most will ever witness.
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.
