The theme of a cocktail reception following the annual Golf Extravaganza will be "Bolingbrook, Where everybody knows your name," in honor of Boston's Cheers. 

All proceeds raised will go toward the One Fund Boston, Inc. Last month, Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Tom Menino announced the formation of The One Fund Boston, Inc. to help the people most affected by the tragic events that occurred in Boston on April 15, 2013.
