In its first year the outing included 96 golfers with four hole sponsors and raised $11,000.
This year 104 golfers participated. There were 17 hole sponsors, two corporate sponsors and the event raised $14,500.
The proceeds from the Wormburner Open will be used to augment the funding of the Niles Athletic Department.
