DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
Supervisor Vasquez requests that the Board adopt a resolution recognizing the 25th annual Stan Foster Memorial Golf Tournament and the assistance it has provided to a community in need each year.
SUMMARY:
Stan Foster was a lifelong Vacaville resident and a standout athlete who shared a passion for the game of golf. Sadly, Stan lost his battle against liver cancer in 1993. More than two decades ago, Stan’s family and friends decided to honor his memory and help others in the community. The Stan Foster Memorial Golf Tournament was created 25 years ago as a day of fun, a chance to catch up with old friends and help someone else in need. This year’s tournament is held Sept. 15, 2017. Each year, proceeds from the Stan Foster Memorial Golf Tournament go directly to an adult or child in the community who could benefit from financial help while battling a serious illness, such as cancer.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this resolution.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Board could choose not to adopt this resolution. This is not recommended because this is an opportunity to recognize the many years of dedication friends and family of Stan Foster, along with the community, have put into an annual event that raises money for a community member in need.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None.
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVE DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION
