Cheney Golf Tournament Photo CollageThe second annual David M. Cheney Memorial Golf Tournament was held on Oct. 4, 2014 in Boxford, MA. Organizers for the event report that it was a sell-out. Proceeds from the event will benefit the David M. Cheney Scholarship Fund held at the University of Maine Foundation.

Cheney was a senior at the University of Maine when he tragically lost his life on November 16, 2012 as a result of a small plane crash in Owls Head.

The scholarship was created to honor David’s memory and his admiration for life. Cheney’s family chose to help other students attain a college education at UMaine through this scholarship.

The 2013 tournament raised over $16,000 in Cheney’s memory, it is expected that the final tally from the 2014 will exceed that total.
