Village of Endicott, NY (WBNG Binghamton) Some pro hockey players take on a different sport to raise money for a local community group.
Johnson City native Jerry D?Amigo of the AHL?s Toronto Marlies was joined by Philadelphia Flyers? Tom Sestito and others in trading in the sticks for nine irons at En Joie this afternoon.
It?s all for the group called S.C.O.R.E (Skating Community for Opportunities in Recreation and Enrichment), which is raising money to build a local ice rink and community center in Endicott.
?It?s a great cause. It?s for a great thing and I?m glad to be out here golfing and it?s on a beautiful course, so why not,? said D?Amigo.
?Grippen Park provided so much recreation and activities for kids for years here in this part of Endicott, Western Broome. We?re trying to recreate that with our own community grass roots project,? said President Jim Tofte.
The event concluded Friday evening with a block party. Featured auction items included a signed NHL All Star Jersey and autographed Barry Sanders Jersey.
