Our residents enjoyed watching the grounds abuzz with such excitement and activity. We are so grateful to our Junior Advisory Board and their commitment to supported ing Parsonage Cottage and our efforts to provide a full spectrum of enriching services and activities to the residents.”

First Selectman Fred Camillo and Selectwoma­n Lauren Rabin were among those in attendance.

The Bogey Boys won the lowest score of the tournament, and the Best Team Costumes award went to the Lemon Drop Kids, Fore Mulligans, Barnyard Girls and I’m Ape for Parsonage Cottage.

The advisory board is made up of Anne O’Connor, Abby Barnett, Maddie Wise, and Jacie Erensen from Sacred Heart Greenwich; Ryan Crowley and Tito Miguens from Greenwich Country Day School; and Robby Duncan and Will Duncan from Brunswick School.
