The 8th Annual Bear Cup will be played this year at the Cohasset Golf Club in Cohasset, MA, Monday, April 28, 2014. This will be a joint meeting with the GCSA of Cape Cod. The GCSA of New England is this year’s host.
This tournament was started in 2007 in memory of Gary Luccini “The Bear” who passed away in 2001. Gary was the long time superintendent at Franklin Country Club and a friend to many.
The event pairs two-person teams from the GCSA of Cape Cod and the GCSA of New England in a friendly competition and a day of fun. If you don’t have a partner, come anyway. Singles will be accommodated. The winning Association claims possession of the Bear Cup trophy for a year.
This will be our season opener for golf meetings and the enthusiastic staff at Cohasset has worked hard to put together a day of exceptional golf and food and most importantly are providing a place to get away from your course, club and office for a day of fun, relaxation and friendship.
