ADMIRALS COVE FOUNDATION CONTINUES GENEROUS SUPPORT

The Admirals Cove Foundation exists to improve lives in our surrounding community and to strengthen the community of Admirals Cove through a culture of giving. The members of Admirals Cove are community driven and giving of their time and resources to positively impact the Palm Beach County area. The Foundation’s philanthropic efforts are made possible through the generous gifts the members collected during their annual giving campaign. “The Admirals Cove Foundation, the club and the members have been tremendous supporters of our Chapter for many years, said Steve Rockoff, Chapter Chairman. “We have an excellent partnership that goes far beyond financial support.” Pictured above left to right: Chapter Chariman Emeritus Dick Sheehan, Jack Barrett – Chapter Development Director, Steve Rockoff – Chapter Chairman and Jill Riehl – Admirals Cove Foundation Board Member and Allocation Chair.

CHAPTER 2017 ANNUAL REPORT

2017 was an incredible year for our chapter. The number of children and Veterans being served has grown every year since our Chapter was founded. Our growth is due to our dedicated community partners, coaches, volunteers and physical educators who deliver the programs: our chapter staff, board members and school administrators who help lead the way; and of course, the numerous individuals, foundations and corporations who provide financial support to fund the programs.

BILLY REID DEMONSTRATES HONESTY AND INTEGRITY

Thirteen members of the Teen Golf Association (TGA), a newly formed group within our Chapter, scheduled a community service day on Saturday April 14th and participated in a walk for autism awareness this past weekend. TGA member, Billy Reid, came upon what he thought was a one-hundred-dollar bill. It turned out to be much more. He found $1,500.00 in the sand! The TGA decided to look for the rightful owner. After this attempt was unsuccessful they found a police officer, told the story and turned in the money. At The First Tee, students are taught our Nine Core Values, including Honesty and Integrity. Billy’s adventure was featured on the nightly news.
