July 2008 Palermo’s
Win ’08 Invitational: What a weekend Dom Palermo and his brother, Bob,
had this year at the Men’s Invitational.
Dom Started out the practice round Thursday, registering a hole in one
on hole #17, and the two of them dominated play all weekend totaling the
highest number of points in the event’s round robin competition. In the
flight winner’s playoff to determine this year’s Champion, Bob eagled hole #1
for a net one and the team held on to win the Invitational. Congratulations
to all 24 teams that participated in this year’s event. Flight winners in
addition to the Palermo’s were Aaron Foust and Scott Astorino, Jesse Shriver
and Graham Kukucka, and Fred Bonello and Ernie Certo. Other June golf event winners were Sid Toy in the
President’s Cup (June 8) and in the Father’s Day event the winning team was
Denny Stewart, Jim Kutsch and Jon Drew. Eric Whelan won the Open raffle this
year Food Service: Just to review our offerings, on Monday, Tuesday

of tournaments this summer and had strong showing at both the WPGA Amateur
(finished tied for fifth at Bedford Springs with scores of 70-75-72) and in
the West Penn Open (finished tied for fourth at Butler CC shooting 69-69 for
a 138 total). He will continue to play both regional and state events this summer. Ann Colligan, KCC Women’s Champion and a
top ten PIAA finalist, is playing some state and AJGA events this summer
