Last year, with the support of over 35 corporate and individual sponsors and dozens of participants, the Sixth Annual Curchin Open raised approximately $12,000, with a total of more than $75,000 over the past six years.  Curchin Partner Peter Pfister commented, “We have been honored to host the Curchin Open for the past six years and each year working with the local charities is such a pleasure. We are looking forward to holding this year’s essay submission in order to find the selected charities and to begin our work together.”  
          
The event will take place indoors at Curchin’s Red Bank office in early November 2012 and additional information about the date and time will be available in June 2012.  Player fees are $20.00 per person, which includes one round of mini golf, food and beverages.  All proceeds from the event will benefit the two locally-based charities that will be selected through the essay submission.
