9th Annual Joyce Spratt Memorial Golf Outing benefitted Saratoga Bridges Foundation
For the 5th consecutive year, the Spratt family has made Saratoga Bridges the beneficiary of funds raised at the Annual Joyce Spratt Memorial Golf Outing. Eighty-eight golfers played at the beautiful Brookhaven Golf Course (located in Porter Corners) on Saturday, September 26 and raised $4,000.
Joyce was a loving wife and mother of 4 boys and sadly passed away after a battle with cancer. Her son Christopher, who is the President of Saratoga Bridges Foundation Board, explains why they chose to support Saratoga Bridges: “Losing her at the age of 46 from cancer was devastating for everyone whose life she touched. This tournament celebrates her life and provides an opportunity for her friends and family to get together to laugh and have fun. We have chosen to donate the proceeds from the past five years to Saratoga Bridges. My brother Todd has a learning disability and because the organization has done so much for our family throughout the years, it was a natural choice. We all know that she would be so proud that this money is being used to help other people with disabilities and their families.”
