SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) - The Spirit of Springfield Golf Classic teed off Friday morning from Franconia Golf Course in Springfield.
The day kicked off with the mayors of Springfield, West Springfield, Agawam, Westfield and Chicopee all taking part in the coveted Mayor's Cup. Each mayor had three short putts to make. For each one they made, they got to take a second shot at a long putt. Closest ball wins.
In the end, Chicopee Mayor John Vieau came out victorious, recapturing the title from 2023. He told 22News why he looks forward to this event, "I get to collaborate with the mayors of western Mass. It's an incredible day and also a wonderful event. The Spirit of Springfield's fundraiser. It's a beautiful golf tournament on a beautiful day."
