York International is proud to have been the presenting sponsor of the 2009 and 2010 Sid Jacobson Jewish Community Center Golf & Tennis Outing. Thanks to all of our friends and business partners, the events were a resounding success. Golf participation was sold out with 44 foursomes participating generating over $300,000 in gross receipts in 2009 and over $324,000 in gross receipts in 2010. The money raised supports the many social services programs offered to the community by the Sid Jacobson JCC.
York International sponsors a baseball team in Ridgefield Connecticut Little League. York International's own Stephen DeMatteo coaches the "York Yankees" and we are all proud that the team was the runner up in the 2010 Little League AA tournament.
