Over $270,000 was raised for the Boomer Esiason Foundation to support research for the treatment of cystic fibrosis. Boomer himself was in attendance with his son Gunner, who was diagnosed at age 2 with cystic fibrosis. The tournament was held at Wedgwood Pines Country Club in Stow, MA. Over 132 golfers participated in the event along with several major sponsors including Pro-Teck Services.
