Beverly Charity Classic
BEVERLY CHARITY CLASSIC
Members at Beverly are able to enjoy a great lifestyle at the club. Unfortunately, some other members of the greater Hamilton community are not so lucky, and the club believes in giving back to the community which it serves. The Beverly Charity Classic golf tournament is the way we do that. This annual event is unique in that it is a pro-am tournament with a Golf Professional in each foursome who plays both as part of the team and for their own prize purse of $10,000. It has become recognized as a superior tournament, and a valuable event to support annually.The 25th annual event will be held August 22, 2024. This year's charity will be Keaton's House-Paul Paletta Children's Hospice
