Ninth Annual Dr. Gil Rojas Memorial Golf Tournament to be Held September 24
Benefits the Putnam Hospital Center Foundation
The Ninth Annual Dr. Gil Rojas Memorial Golf Tournament to benefit the Putnam Hospital Center Foundation will be held on Monday, September 24, at the Salem Golf Club in North Salem.
The tournament is being held in memory of Dr. Gilberto Rojas, a member of the hospital's original medical staff who was an active general surgeon for 28 years. Much respected and loved within the hospital and throughout the community, his legacy of medical care and charitable works and that of his family have been honored with the establishment of a nondenominational chapel adjacent to the hospital's main lobby.
Proceeds from this year's golf tournament will support the hospital's major building project that includes a five-story patient tower to house PHC's new cancer center including radiation therapy, hospital/community use conference center, physicians' offices and private patient rooms; renovation of 20,000 square feet of existing space to centralize services and enhance clinical programs; and the creation of additional parking spaces.
The Rojas Family is the lead sponsor of the golf tournament, which is set to begin with registration from 10 to 11:30am, followed by a shotgun start at 12:30pm. Lunch will be provided and cold drinks will be available on the course throughout the tournament. During the day, there will be a hole-in-one contest and competitions for longest drive and closet to the pin. Following golf, there will be a dinner reception/awards ceremony, with raffles and door prizes. For golf and sponsorship information, please call the Putnam Hospital Center Foundation at 845-279-5711, Ext. 2963.
