2011 GOLF TOURNAMENT

On Monday, July 25th, 2011, the WNY Chapter of ASIS will hold its Annual Scholarship Fundraiser and Golf Outing at the Fox Valley Country Club in Lancaster, NY.

Proceeds of the Golf Outing benefit the ASIS Scholarship Fund and modest business operating expenses. The WNY Chapter of ASIS is setting a goal to raise enough funds to augment our Scholarship Program and strengthen the local Chapter. Over the past 14 years, the local chapter is proud to announce it has awarded over $30,000.00 in scholarships to local students who attend local colleges and universities. Last year we had 2 scholarship winners or $1,000.00 each. This success is a result of local corporate sponsorship who take great pride in the community and share our goal to develop the organization, its’ programs and students. Many of these outstanding students have moved on to serve the community positively in both private and public sector security and law enforcement positions.

In order to achieve our goals and make this outing a success we need your help. We are seeking corporate sponsorship, which is available as follows:

Corporate Outing Sponsorship $250.00

Over the span of a 23-year career he served in both the Military Police Corps and in Army Aviation. A Desert Storm veteran, Mark is the recipient of the Bronze Star Medal, the Air Medal and the Army Commendation Medal both with “V” device denoting Valor. He retired in December 2001 as a lieutenant colonel.
