This year Bennington Project Independence was picked as the beneficiary of the Coggins Classic. It is a true honor to be selected. And what a collaboration it turned out to be! It was an amazing day full of golf (of course) fun and laughter.

All of us here at Bennington Project Indepedence would like to thank Coggins, the golfers, sponsors, donors, volunteers, the BPI Golf Committee and the Board of Directors for their dedication to our members and for supporting our amazing program. All of you help to make our program the success that it is.

Save the date for the return of our Annual Golf Tournament for next year … Sunday, June 6, 2027 at the Mount Anthony Country Club!
