Foye golf tourney raises $7,000
The first Jim Foye Memorial Golf Tournament Sept. 8 at Gorham Country Club raised more than $7,000 benefiting scholarships for Westbrook High School seniors.
The tournament in memory of Foye, who died in March, drew 36 teams with a total of 144 players. It was “as good as any tournament I’ve played in,” said Terry White of Westbrook.
“A super time,” Peter Foye, a cousin who played in the tourney, said.
Jim Foye and his brother Mark owned a Westbrook business.
The team winners were:
A flight: 1st Todd Kent, Jason Hebert, Thomas Hebert and Aaron Schimke; 2nd Jeff Joyce, Bryan VanDike, John Dixon and Glenn Amico; 3rd Bob Blais, Jim Blais, Andrew Blais and John Blais.

D flight: 1st Hal Leighton, Vance Leighton, Mike Thompson and Sonia Thompson; 2nd Colleen Hilton, Bill Hilton, Patty Amico and Anthony Amico; 3rd Chris Harnois, Alfie Lefebvre, Jim Goodman and Dick Bornstein.
The tourney contest winners were Tim Maloy, closest to the pin, 3.5 inches; and Matt White with longest drive, 310 yards. Paul Concannon of Westbrook won a drawing for Patriots tickets.
“The scholarship benefits Westbrook High School graduating seniors who exemplify the qualities that made Jim the man we all loved and respected,” said Tami Blake Hamilton, a tourney organizer.
Tournament organizers included Cliff Wescott, Steve Lampron, Mark Foye, Kathy Feldman and Hamilton.
