BIDDEFORD, Maine – Our community of golfers and businesses, both small and large, came together this year in a spectacular way to support the da Vinci surgical robot and its use in our Bariatrics program. Thanks to our Title Sponsor Spectrum Healthcare, and our other sponsors and teams, we raised a record breaking $130,000.

For the first time SMHC held two days of events to meet the high demand of teams. Dunegrass Golf Club and Cape Arundel Golf Club each hosted one day, and with strict adherence to safety protocols they were fabulous days of golf. Highlights included an air cannon and silent auction. Congratulations to the 1st gross winning teams who earn the honor of the coveted SMHC white lab coats among other prizes:
  • Dunegrass: Salem Advisory Group & Post Road Title Co. – Peter Bishop, Scott Gillespie, Mike Labonte, Bruce Gammons
  • Cape Arundel: Saco & Biddeford Savings Institution – Dave Goyet, Eric Doyon, Dick Buffum, Zac Golojuch
