Do-gooders and golf enthusiasts gathered at the Rockville Links Country Club on Oct. 1 to celebrate Robert Schenone, the honoree of the Mayor’s 26th Annual Golf Classic. The event benefitted the Rockville Centre Community Fund, which helps residents in need.

Residents and guests enjoyed a lovely fall evening replete with catered dinner, a round of golf, and an interruption by a country farmer — who turned out to be Schenone himself.
