The first ever “Fore! the Arts” Golf Classic to benefit both Stambaugh Auditorium and the Youngstown Symphony Society will be held on Friday, July 30 at Youngstown Country Club. The event will begin at 7:30 a.m. and will include a day of golf followed by a cocktail reception, lunch buffet and presentation of prizes. 

The event is hosted by the Boards of Directors of the Henry H. Stambaugh Auditorium and the Youngstown Symphony Society. Scott Schulick, event co-chair, said, “Our community is so fortunate to have the DeYor Performing Arts Center and Stambaugh Auditorium which are the area’s two magnificent, historic, performing arts venues.” Jim Dascenzo, event co-chair, added, “This fundraising effort is an extension of the partnership that both organizations have formed to share services, reduce costs, expand programming and preserve these two beautiful venues.” Proceeds from the event will help to support programming for the upcoming season and educational and outreach activities as well. 

Sponsorship opportunities include unique benefits including various recognition opportunities at the event as well as tickets, advertising and promotional opportunities throughout the upcoming season. Plus, sponsors will be publicly showing their support for the two premier non-profit performing arts organizations in the Mahoning Valley.
