Hudson Valley Law Enforcement Golf Classic

Yesterday the Committee to Elect Kevin McConville for Putnam County Sheriff sponsored the Hudson Valley Law Enforcement Golf Classic. The site of the event was the Putnam National Golf Club in Mahopac. Boy, was it a day for golfing. As you can see from the pictures below the sun was beating down on Kevin McConville and his golfers. I hope everyone wore sunscreen.






A trip for two to Myrtle Beach, SC was raffled off as well as golf bags, putters and drivers. All proceeds from the raffle were donated to the the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.
