Fry Healthcare Foundation hosts annual golf tournament

Swing! For your heart, for your health and for the community, and that’s what 44 players did at the Fry Healthcare Foundation’s 11th Annual Golf Tournament on Friday, Sept. 6.

Dustin Kralik and Tim Jackson played to a victory on the beautiful fairways and greens at Mirror Lake Golf Course as part of the “Red Hot Foursome”.

Phil Pollacia and Beth Wrigley came in second with Dave Anderson and Dick Staples finishing in third place.

Longest Drive for Men was Joe Laffoon. In addition to coming in second, Beth Wrigley had the Longest Drive for Women and Closest to the Hole. Larry Nelson had the Most Accurate Drive and Gus Jackson sank the Longest Putt.

Sponsors for the tournament included Kootenai Health, Yellowstone Insurance Exchange, Life Flight Network, Gardiner Prime Angus Ranch, Edward Jones Investments, Boundary Community Hospital Board of Trustees, Pace-Kerby & Co., P1FCU, Medicine Man Pharmacy, and Riverside Auto Center. Generous donations were received from BF Redi-Mix, The Dressing Room, Cloud Eleven Mountain Farms, Mugsy’s Tavern and Grill, Roxanna Little Designs, Steve Nelson, Beth Wrigley, Riverside Auto Center, Kootenai Health, and Auburn Crest Hospice. Special thank you to John Mace and his team at IBC Signs for donating new Tee Box signs for the tournament.

Beck’s Furniture donated the prize for the Great Golf Ball Drop — a gas fire pit with four chairs valued at $1,300. The winning golf ball had Jan Baird’s number on it. Jan’s husband John, who was playing in the tournament, was happy to accept the prize on behalf of his wife.

The funds raised at this year’s tournament will be used to purchase large power tools for joint replacement surgery at Boundary Community Hospital. Over the past 20 years, the Fry Healthcare Foundation and our community have raised more than $1.2 million to benefit the hospital. We are very grateful for your continued support that ultimately benefits everyone who relies on Boundary Community Hospital for emergency and routine care.
