Coaches Vs. Cancer Beach Ball

The second annual Coaches Vs. Cancer Beach Ball, held Saturday, August 7th at the Stone Harbor Golf Club, grossed more than $30,000 to support both the American Cancer Society and its AstraZeneca Hope Lodge for cancer patients and their families. Among the 180 guests were Philadelphia Division I college basketball coaches Fran Dunphy of Temple, Phil Martelli of St. Joseph’s, James “Bruiser” Flint of Drexel, and Jerome Allen of Penn. Ree Dunphy and Judy Martelli, wives of Fran and Phil, were co-chairs of the charity event. Guests enjoyed a fun evening at the shore featuring live music by BLT, candid photos in the photo booth, homemade Springer’s Ice Cream, and delicious fudge and saltwater taffy from The Fudge Kitchen for dessert.
