WVU Medicine East announces 32nd golf classic
MARTINSBURG, W.Va. – Scott Mathis, WVU Medicine Berkeley Medical Center, and C.D. Linton, Argos, have been named co-chairs for the 2019 Bernie Hutzler Golf Classic.
The annual golf classic, which benefits Berkeley Medical Center in Martinsburg and Jefferson Medical Center in Ranson, will be held on Monday, June 3 at Cress Creek in Shepherdstown. To date, $1.7 million in proceeds has been raised as a result of past golf tournaments at both hospitals.
This year marks the 32nd year for the tournament, which was established in 1988 as a fund raiser and friend raiser for Berkeley Medical Center. Named in memory of WVU Medicine East Charter Board Director Dr. James “Bernie” Hutzler, the tournament was expanded in 2010 to benefit both Berkeley and Jefferson medical centers.
Proceeds from this year’s golf classic will be used to purchase equipment for the emergency departments at both Eastern Panhandle hospitals.

Flight preference will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Golfers may form their own teams but will be subject to handicap restrictions as determined by the Golf Pro at Cress Creek.
Sponsorship levels include the $5000 Presenting, $2500 Underwriting, $1000 Sponsor, $500 Patron and $200 Golfer. An optional $20 Player’s Package is available for purchase which includes a mulligan, forward tee and pro’s drive on #3 and #11. A portion of the sponsorship and golfer package is tax deductible.
