Academy’s 1st Annual Golf Invitational

Academy Golf Invitational a Success

Due to the hard work of Frank Bostock, MBA, CO, FAAOP, the Academy’s 1st Annual Golf Invitational, held April 21–22 at the beautiful Greyhawk Golf Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, was a huge success. Participants enjoyed two great days of golf and were treated to a wine tasting at the renowned Avanti’s restaurant. Featured wines included Zinfandel and Petit Verdot from Frank Bostock’s Arizona Winery, Todd Bostock’s Dos Cabezas wines, and Pinot Noir from the Oregon vineyard of Steve Whiteside, CO, FAAOP. R.W. Eaks, a current Senior PGA Professional with three top ten finishes this year, joined the golfers on both Friday and Saturday. There is nothing like getting a few tips from a top professional!

Academy Board Member Jim Rogers, CPO, FAAOP, who helped arrange the event, joined golfers from Ossur, Otto Bock HealthCare, Hanger, and others for the weekend. Bostock, in a letter to the Academy Board, said he hopes this event will reflect its name—1st Annual—and will become a yearly tradition. In addition to everyone in attendance having a great time, the Academy raised nearly $10,000 to further our mission.
