| This
year's theme:
Welcome
to the 15th Annual BCA Golf Tournament, which has taken place this
year at the Club de golf Outaouais in Rockland on September 7, 2012,
and which will benefit breast cancer research and development. This
year, all proceeds went to support a local organization for breast
cancer screening.
We
again thank those who contributed; 216 golfers and sponsors helped
raise $54,000!
