SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Golfers teed it up Wednesday to help raise money for some good causes.

More than 270 golfers hit the course at Drumlins Country Club in Syracuse for the 22nd annual Mirabito Golf Classic. This year's tournament raised more than $160,000.

All of the money raised will go to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Jim and Julie Boeheim Foundation and the Children's Home.

During the past 22 years of doing the tournament, Mirabito has donated more than $1.4 million to various charities.

"Our family, the Mirabitos and our company have always been really community oriented. Our business doesn't survive without these communities that we're in and it means a lot to us to be able to dedicate the people and time to this tournament, to give back in a big way," said Lindsay Meehan, Director of Marketing and Communications for Mirabito.

Mirabito has teamed up with vendors and customers from around the region every year to make this tournament possible. This is the first year the tournament was held in Syracuse. Usually, it's held in Binghamton.
