Save the Date: 32nd Annual Swing Your Birdie - Friday, July 30th, 2010 2010 marks the 30th year of serving families and the 32nd year of the Swing Your Birdie Golf Classic. The "Birdie" was the first charity golf tournament in Rochester and was the first fundraiser supporting the Ronald McDonald House.
