2007 Event

Inaugural Event Tops $200,000

Thank you to everyone who made CNU’s inaugural Scholarship Golf Classic and Auction a runaway success. Our 2007 event raised more than $200,000 for endowed scholarships, supporting top students as they pursue an education at Christopher Newport University.  

Those attending the event enjoyed a memorable day of golf at the James River Country Club in Newport News, musical entertainment courtesy of Bill Deal's Rhondels, and the evening auction and raffle. The many auction/raffle items included trips to celebrated events like the Masters Tournament and British Open, plus luxurious getaways to Pebble Beach, Naples and other popular locales.

We extend sincere gratitude to our 2007 sponsors:
