The Mayor's annual Golf and Tennis Classic and Dinner, the primary fundraiser for the Rockville Centre Community Fund, will honor former Village Justice Frank Yannelli on Oct. 5 at the Seawane Club in Hewlett

Harbor.

Tickets and sponsorships for the all-day event, as well as journal ads are still available. The donation for lunch, cocktails and dinner as well as a round of golf is $350. The donation for tennis, lunch and dinner is $265. Dinner-only tickets are $110.

DeVa Gantt, a writer of historical-romance fiction set in the antebellum South, will sign her books during the tennis luncheon.

To make a reservation or for information about sponsorships, call Mary Rohrs at (516) 678-9260. To place a journal ad, call Mary Beth Croutier at (516) 606-8193 before Sept. 25.

Each year the Community Fund provides confidential assistance to hundreds of people in emergency need. Unlike other non-profit charities, the fund is directed exclusively to Rockville Centre residents, who have received more than $950,000 since it was founded in 1987.
