The Distinguished Citizen is chosen for his/her long standing commitment to our local communities. Their tireless leadership, energy and vitality have been a true inspiration.

Confer Classic Golf Tournament
All proceeds from the Confer Classic will benefit an organization near and dear to the Confer family’s hearts: Scouting America.
The local scout council – the Great Falls Council – serves 5,300 cub scouts, scouts, and explorers across Western NY, Central NY, and Northern PA.
Among its properties is Camp Sam Wood in Pike, NY. That camp is seeing construction of a pavilion for nature education being named in honor of Dave Hawley, who passed away in 2023 at 82 years of age. As a volunteer, Dave served Scouting his entire adult life! All proceeds from this year’s Confer Classic are earmarked for the pavilion.
Held every year since 2016 (except for the pandemic year of 2020), the Classic and its golfers and sponsors have amassed $156,000 in profits donated to the Scouts. In 2024, the event brought in a whopping $27,000 in profits!

Clay Shoot For Scouting – Corning, Medina & North Tonawanda locations
Sporting clays a little bit of skeet shooting, a little bit of trap shooting with some golf thrown in for good measure. It’s a shotgun shooting game in which clay pigeons are presented to the shooter in ways that mirror the flight pattern of game birds, or occasionally rabbits, in their natural habitats.
Sporting clays is exciting, challenging and LOTS OF FUN, no matter if you’re a beginner, novice or experienced shooter. The shooting grounds are laid out in stations also called stands along a course similar to golf & you shoot between 4 & 6 clays per station.
