5th Annual Investment In Character

2022 Golf Classic

Pinehills Golf Club – Located in Plymouth, Massachusetts – just a 45 minute drive from Boston – Pinehills is spectacularly set on over 300 acres of rolling hills punctuated by dramatic, glacially carved kettles and kames. Here, you’ll find two 18-hole championship courses designed by Rees Jones and Nicklaus Design, the most extensive practice facilities in New England, and the Pinehills Golf Academy, providing quality PGA instruction. You’ll also enjoy their Clubhouse, offering gracious amenities and fine dining, as well as an array of elegant settings for special events, including golf outings, wedding receptions, and social gatherings. For more information about the club, check out www.pinehillsgolf.com

This event was held on Tuesday, June 7 and was sold out!

Nicklaus Course: The Nicklaus Design course at Pinehills Golf Club offers a totally different and unique experience. The Nicklaus course is an exceptional course bordered by stately trees and highlighted by challenging green complexes, gently rolling fairways, and a classic variety of holes . Five sets of tees allows this golf course to play from 5,185 yards to 7,243 yards.

Jones Course: The Jones course is characterized by Rees Jones’ signature style – challenging to play, enjoyable for experts and novices alike, and respectful of the land, with built in subtleties that offer a new playing experience every time. Five sets of tees allows this golf course to play from 5,388 yards to 7,175 yards.

Join us on Wednesday, November 10, 2021 to celebrate two outstanding individuals.

Maureen Johnson and Ian Johnson

The Good Scout Award is bestowed upon individuals who have demonstrated integrity and genuine concern for others in both their professional and personal lives.

Mr. and Mrs. Johnson both serve on a variety of boards and committees, and they are each involved in organizing many community events. Mr. Johnson, a lifelong resident of Westborough and member of the Board of Selectmen, has served on the town Finance Committee. He is very involved in Scouting and serves as a member of the Good Scout Committee. Mrs. Johnson, President of the Westborough Education Foundation, Treasurer of the Westborough Cultural Council and co-chair Arts In Common, President of the Public Westborough Library foundation, chairs the Annual Trivia Bee and co-chairs the Turkey Trot, popular Westborough events. She was recently named a 2020 Commonwealth Heroine.

The recipients need not have been Scouts but must carry the “Spirit of Scouting” into their adult lives. They are people who have been unselfish in their service to others on an individual and community basis. They seek no return for their service other than the satisfaction of aiding their fellow citizens, their community, and their nation.

The Good Scouts are people who truly capture the respect and imagination of our youth.
