Jim Perry Legends Golf Classic

1967 Cy Young award winner Mike McCormick of the San Francisco Giants teamed with EHP Ron Drebert this year at the Legends Golf Classic in Springfield Ohio benefiting the Ohio Masonic Home, Benevolent Endowment Foundation. 1967 was the first year where separate Cy Young Awards were presented to the best pitchers in the American and National Leagues.

The outing provided an outstanding venue for golf with plentiful opportunities to meet personally with many of the legends of the sporting world and associated fields. When facing a "pressure" shot, as quoted by Ron, Mike responded, "that's not pressure, pressure is facing Hank Aaron in front of about 50,000 people with another 1 to 2 million watching on TV." Just as a note, Hank Aaron hit his 500Th home run against Mike McCormick, thus the reason for Mike's story.

Presented by the Benevolent Endowment Foundation of The Ohio Masonic Home, the Jim Perry Legends Golf Classics are unique annual events where golf, camaraderie, food, and fun combine for an unforgettable experience. All while helping support one of the state's oldest charities and, in turn, helping others in need. Contact Ken Marsenburg or visit jimperrylegends.com for more information to participate in the events next year.
