Chamber News

The Belleville Chamber of Commerce held its 53rd Annual Golf Tournament, in partnership with, for the second consecutive year, Gleaners Food Bank in Belleville on Friday, September 6th, 2024 at Trillium Wood Golf Club, with presenting sponsor, Elexicon Energy.  

We had a SOLD OUT tournament with 144 golfers as of the August long weekend, but due to some health reasons, we had a few cancellations, and ended up with 138 people on the links.  

Despite the off-and-on rain throughout the day, spirits remained high as the golf course buzzed with activity. Tents, snacks, and beverages dotted the landscape, while golf celebrity Todd Keirstead wowed each foursome with trick shots and playful banter. A big thank you to the businesses that welcomed golfers at each hole. With the collective support of everyone, Gleaners successfully filled a van with non-perishable food items, along with raising additional funds from the raffle and silent auction.

As it turned out, we definitely had a mixup with the winning scores with TWO TEAMS scoring -14.  The foursome from Hanon Systems, defending their 2023 title, as well as the Rushnell Family Services team.  We apologize for the confusion and hope to see both teams back next year.  The most honest score (the highest) was held by Wallis Law. 

A huge thanks goes out to all of our signature and hole sponsors, as well as the many, many businesses who generously donated items and services to help raise funds for the Chamber and for Gleaners.
