Our History
The Duramed FUTURES Tour has found a home at Capital Hills at
Albany. The tour, which has a long established history in the
Capital Region and we were proud to bring the tournament to Capital
Hills in 2004. With support from I LOVE NEW YORK and Mayor Jennings
we have been able to establish a first run event in a short period
of time. From the PGA Staff at Capital Hills to all the volunteers
who give their time to make this tournament a great success our goal
is to continue to improve the quality of our event, bring more fans
out to see the tournament and showcase it as the premier
professional sporting event in the Capital Region.
Our Charity
The Albany Police & Fire Foundation was founded in
2000. It’s goal is to provide financial assistance to both the
Albany Police and Albany Fire Departments in areas of training,
education and equipment that will provide the most efficient and
professional service to the City of Albany.
The money raised by the I LOVE NY Championship will go towards
establishing a college scholarship endowment for family members of
police officers, firefighters and Albany High School students, who
based on academic achievement qualify for the need of financial
assistance to further their education.
