The Best Scramble of the Year, AND One More Time to Honor a Legend.
When we lost Billy C. (William J. Connelly) on November 15, 2021, we didn’t just lose a friend; we lost a force of nature. To keep his memory alive, seven friends chipped in $300 each to turn grief into opportunity. Combining Billy’s two greatest passions: golf and education, we created The Billy C. Tournament, and promised $500 annual scholarships for five years at both Scotia-Glenville, and Niskayuna high schools.
When Billy's wife Alison came on board, and with the help of his life-long friend Kevin O'Brien; what started as a modest $3,000 promise, has grown into a legacy. As we enter our Fifth & Final Round, we are proud to celebrate a total of $17,000 in scholarships awarded to 10 students from Scotia-Glenville and Niskayuna. Thanks to your support, Billy’s impact will continue to be felt, with $2,000 scholarships at each school for another five years.
The Stakes:
After the final putt drops, join us for a catered buffet at The Parlor, followed by a final toast at Stoney’s Irish Pub—where the beer is cold and the Connelly family ties run deep.
Billy C. shows off the perfect swing. Study up and maybe you can get a hole-in-one too.
