The 2017 Brian Anselmino Memorial golf outing will be held on Friday, October 6, at Lindenwood Golf Club in Canonsburg. This annual event was put together to honor the life and legacy of former New Eagle and Canonsburg resident Brian Anselmino, and to raise funds for two annual scholarships for local high school students.

Brian Anselmino

Anselmino, a Ringgold High School and Duquesne University standout basketball player and Canonsburg community volunteer, died in an automobile accident in 2014. His love for his family, friends, co-workers and volunteering his time with youth will never be forgotten. The Brian Anselmino Memorial Fund (BAMF) has been established so that his life's work and passion can continue. All proceeds from the golf outing will benefit the BAMF which provides two $5,000 scholarships annually to Ringgold and Canon-McMillan School Districts.

Come out and enjoy a day of golf with Brian's family, friends and supporters in remembrance of a great son, husband, father, friend and individual. For more information, please visit the website www.briananselmino.org.
