Golf for Life Outing
The second Annual Golf for Life Outing took
place on June 5, 2006, at the Rockaway River
Country Club in Denville, New Jersey. Once again,
the event was lovingly organized and hosted by the
family of Carol Spina, who is currently battling ALS.
The day was picture perfect and extraordinarily
successful, raising awareness of ALS and over
$200,000 for the Eleanor and Lou Gehrig MDA/ALS
Research Center. Attendees enjoyed a delicious
buffet lunch, followed by 18 holes of golf on the
club’s lush fairways and manicured greens. At the
sixth hole, golfers tried to win a Ford Mustang with a
hole in one, but no one made the lucky shot,
although several players came close. A cocktail hour
and dinner followed, accompanied by a silent
auction where approximately 200 guests generously
bid on items as varied as autographed sports
jerseys, weekend getaways, hand embroidered
pillowcases, baseball tickets, designer jewelry and
art work. The center is grateful to all those to who
contributed to the event and especially to the Spina
family for their enthusiastic support and trust. W ith
their generosity and dedication we move closer to
the cure.
