7th Annual Charity Golf Tournament
Sunday June 23th, 2024
Our Seventh Annual Charity Golf Tournament is set for Sunday, June 23, 2024, at beautiful Rothland Golf Course. So, dust off those clubs, grab your friends and register today with our early resignation. Our golf tournament is our largest fundraising event which supports the mission of helping those with a spinal cord injury or other neurological conditions. Your support works to provide supplemental grants to provide some financial assistance to those attending Motion Project. This specialized program is not covered by insurance so clients must pay out of pocket to get the recovery they so desperately need and want. This event also provides the opportunity for our CARES program….Community, Advocacy, Resources, Education and Support bringing clients together to fill this need.
Register today for this fun filled day of competition, delicious food, basket raffle, live auction and lots of surprises along the way. Best of all….being with a great group of people! THIS TOURNAMENT SOLD OUT LAST YEAR SO BE SURE TO REGISTER WITH THE EARLY REGISTRATION PROMOTION.
NOT A GOLFER??? Not a problem – join us for the delicious grilled steak dinner and have some fun with the basket raffle and live auction.
If you cannot join us, consider supporting us with a donation, any amount will be a blessing.
THANK YOU TO OUR 2024 SPONSORS!

Our Gold Sponsor – Commercial Cleaning Services of Western New York (CCS of WNY); our Silver Sponsors – West Herr Chevrolet of Williamsville and Numotion (United Spinal); our Bronze Sponsors – Allied Motion and DIH Hocoma and the many, many hole sponsors for you all made this an incredible event.
This was such an amazing tournament thanks to all the golfers that came out to support Motion Project. It was a sold-out tournament. Rothlands Golf Course is beautiful and the professional staff made sure that all our golfers and guests’ needs were met. Rothlands provided an organized registration and cart assignment, shotgun start, lunch at the turn and a delicious grilled steak dinner and everyone had a great time. Not to mention prizes for top team and of course, last place team as well, were given away at the dinner. Tons of fun with the basket raffle and live auction and the presentation of this year’s “Gabe” award. It was a day full of friendly competition and lots of surprises along the way.
