“Chip in Fore Hospice” Golf Tournament another HUGE success!

DELHI – Helios Care hosted their long-established Chip in Fore Hospice Golf tournament on Wednesday, September 17th at the College Course at Delhi. This year’s tournament featured a captain-and-crew format, multiple contests throughout the course, and a Hole In One for a car sponsored by Scoville Meno/ Upstate Honda! Participants had the opportunity to enjoy the scenic and demanding layout of the course, while networking with other business leaders from around the region.

Sponsored by New York Central Mutual Insurance (NYCM), the tournament is a cornerstone of Helios Care’s most significant annual fundraisers, with over $55,000 raised in unrestricted funds for the organization to support their hospice and palliative care patients in Otsego, Delaware and Schoharie counties. Next year’s tournament will move to Schoharie County and will be held on September 16, 2026 at the challenging Cobleskill golf course.
