Peabody Torigian Golf Tournament Delivers Big Community Impact

PEABODY, MA — A day of golf at The Meadow will have a lasting impact on the community through the funds the Peabody Area Chamber of Commerce and Peabody Rotary Club raised during this month's Torigian Golf Tournament.

This annual event brought together local business leaders, community members, and civic-minded individuals for a day of friendly competition — all in the spirit of giving back.

"This event showcases the power of collaboration between the business community and civic organizations," said Deanne Healey, president of the PACC, "and demonstrates how a fun day out can translate beyond the golf course into real, tangible benefits for people right here in our own backyard.

The tournament kicked off with breakfast sandwiches donated by Chick Fil A Peabody, hot coffee from Breaking Grounds Café and fun swag from our Breakfast Sponsor, Ellie Mental Health. The day ended with a delicious Italian buffet lunch at Capone’s Restaurant, followed by recognizing the 1st place team Golf Lounge18; 2nd place Duffy Insurance; 3rd place Hurwitz Richard Sencabaugh; Closest to the Pin, Kai Nice from Ellie Mental Health; Longest Drive Women: Michele Feld; Longest Drive Men: Joe Capprini from Golf Lounge18 and Golf Cannon winner, Tony Carson from Rockland Trust.

"We're proud to partner with the Peabody Area Chamber of Commerce each year to create an event that's not only fun, but also fuels meaningful community projects and supports those who need it most," said Cindy Moore, president of Peabody Rotary Club.
