Schepisi Communications Golf Day – Melbourne 2016

Much like its Sydney counterpart, the Schepisi Communications Melbourne Golf Day 2016 was a great success!

With ticket sales, event sponsorship, auctions and 10 Distraction Box sponsorships, a total of $30,557 was raised for sick kids and their families. This brings the 2016 Golf Days total to an incredible $63,966! We would like to wholeheartedly thank Ben Giblett, Andrew Schepisi, Lisa Longaretti and the TLC for Kids Events Team for once again putting in the hard yards to make it all happen, and Huntingdale Golf Course for having us.

The day started with some delicious egg and bacon rolls before the golfing began. It was a fantastic day of sport and networking, with a big congratulations to the following Golf Prize winners:

  • 1st place – Jeff Nadelman, Con Zaharias, Gary Peer and Frank Tamborriello
  • 2nd place – Josh Bunthong, Robert Toose, Alan Smith and David Heffernan
  • 3rd place – Bryan Goudsblom, David Bunn, Tim Jackson and Mark
  • Longest Drive winners – James Kemp, Sophie Rex and Alex Gorrie
  • Nearest The Pin winners – Alex Gorrie, Alisha Jamieson, Greg Chapnik
  • Bradman Award – Charles King, Sreko Vuka, Doug Wihiffin, Ziggy Dimi

Luckily, the rain held out until the last hour of golfing, at which point the players proceeded indoors for the lunch and auction, hosted by TLC for Kids ambassador Shura Taft. There were plenty of prizes to go round, from a sunset cruise, to a baby toy hamper, to a signed Geelong jumper! Thank you to all those who placed their bids. Another huge thanks to special guests Garry Sweet, Gyton Grantley, Nathaniel Dean, Jake Reed and Damien Fleming who joined us on the day.
