Cincinnati, OH July 2010 Alumni and friends of the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science teed it up July 8 at Aston Oaks Golf Club in nearby North Bend, Ohio. Forty golfers hit the links and enjoyed lunch at the challenging 18-hole, Jack Nicklaus-designed course situated above the Ohio River. Besides the camaraderie, the net result was $4,000 raised to support the colleges building fund.

As CCMS president Karen Giles worked on details of this first golf outing, she kept her eye on the ball, soliciting hole sponsors, raffle donors and golfers. And on the morning of the event she literally kept her eye on the ball as she landed her first hole in one. Following custom, she personally bought a round. "Wow! What a great way to kick-off our first golf outing, says President Giles. My heartfelt thanks to the outstanding sponsors and teams. We hope to see everyone back next year -- and even a few more who could not play this time."

Generous hole sponsors included:

NOMIS Publications

Water Resolution

Cincinnati Surgical Company

Batesville Casket

Hillenbrand, Inc.

Cincinnati Equitable Life Insurance Co.

Reger Funeral Home

Pierce Fluid Company

Rosenacker & Associates Law Offices

Williams B&G Maintenance

The winning golfers for the day were on a five-man team captained by current CCMS student Jon Palmer. Other team members included his father Terry Palmer, Josh Batchelor, Andrew Neff and Tom Tharp.
