40th ANNIVERSARY OF THE GOLF CLASSIC
Thursday, September 24, 2026 - Cog Hill Golf & Country Club
|
|
|
|
|
In memory of event founder,
Joseph J. Gentile '42
|
|
|
|
For forty years, the golf classic has united alumni, students, present parents, parents of alumni, faculty/staff, and friends of the school for a great day of golf, food, drink, and camaraderie. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, guests, and benefactors, students and families in the Financial Aid Program benefit from the funds raised at the outing. The Financial Aid Program is critical in our efforts to meet the needs of many Ignatian students as we continue to educate in the Jesuit Catholic tradition, to be “young men and women for others.” For the 2026-2027 academic year, the need for financial aid has exceeded 7.5 million dollars.
Please join us on Thurs., Sept. 24, 2026, as golfers tee off to create a possibility of an Ignatius education, as all funds raised benefit students. Following the outing, golfers and friends will enjoy food, drink, and prizes.
Thank You for Helping Our Students and Their Families!
