VERY SUCCESSFUL GOLF TOURNAMENT
All 144 slots were filled on Saturday, June
9, 2001 at the 35th Annual Associated General
Contractors of America Golf Tournament at Emerald
Dunes Golf Club in West Palm Beach. Every year,
tournament proceeds provide a scholarship to a
student in a school of construction and, this
year, thanks to the generosity of CFXF Board of
Advisors member Barkley Henderson and his son,
Kyle, father of a fragile X affected child, a
substantial portion of the proceeds will be donated
to Conquer Fragile X Foundation. Look for details
and photos in our next newsletter. Sincere thanks
to Barkley and Kyle!!
