JUPITER MEDICAL DAY

Frenchman ’ s Creek ’ s fundraising for Jupiter Medical Center underwent some significant changes this past year.

First, the event was re - named “ Jupiter Medical Center Day at Frenchman ’ s Creek ” (1) to recognize that the event was not about “ men ’ s health ” but, as we all know, is a fundraiser for JMC and (2) to acknowledge that the event and fund - raising efforts are gender - neutral as many women have donated in the past and they are now included in the day ’ s golf activi ties. The JMC fund - raising leadership baton was passed from the wonderfully successful duo of past Co - Chairs Bernie Her man and Steve Weinberg, who established a mutually benefi cial and mutually appreciated excellent two - way relationship between JMC and Frenchman ’ s Creek, to current Co - Chairs Mike Morgan, Gil Hollander and Steve Gordon, who took full advantage of the past Chairs ’ guidance and established pathway to success. Having satisfied in full our previous pledge. Frenchman ’ s Creek made a new pledge to JMC this past year of $5 Million over 5 years. JMC is naming the large entrance atrium in its new Patient Care Center now under construction, where sign age for “ Frenchman ’ s Creek Atrium ” will be prominently displayed and will be a well - deserved source of pride for our community. This year, JMC Day successfully raised over $1.2 Million toward our 5 year commitment, despite a rain - shortened tour nament (note: Dr. Amit Rastogi, President of JMC, finished 18 holes undaunted by the rain). Breakfast was terrific and it seemed that everyone returned to the Pavilion for a fantastic lunch and to hear expressions of gratitude from Dr. Rastogi and JMC ’ s Director of Development, Traci Simonsen, all MC ’ d by our Mike Morgan. JMC Day could not have been successful without the support and herculean efforts of our tireless staff members: Berna dette Mukuka, Rocco Panzitta and Deanna Usiadek.
