The annual event brings together supporters of Unlimited Potential and area golfers for a day of golf, food and laughs. The entry fee is $65, which O’Shea says is very low for a reason. “We keep the entry fee low because some of our players claim to have lost a bit of money at the flat track,” O’Shea said with smile. “The business community has been very supportive in the past by purchasing tee signs and donating prizes.” All money raised goes to support the mission of Unlimited Potential, an organization that works with mentally disabled adults from Saratoga County. UP helps these individuals return to the competitive work force and provides a wide variety of services to the business community, including wood products, mailing and assembly services.

Unlimited Potential’s workshop produces wood products such as shrub covers and picnic tables and the mailing operation works with local businesses processing catalogs and promotional pieces and delivering the finished product to the Post Office. In 2008 Unlimited Potential’s woodshop made over 1200 shrub covers, 80 picnic tables and nearly 50 Adirondack chairs. UP has expanded the woodshop product line and now offers hand painted Adirondack chairs for children and dolls, occasional tables and the newest addition, Saratoga tables. In addition, the mailing center at Unlimited Potential processed over 200,000 pieces of mail for local businesses. Unlimited Potential’s ultimate goal is to find work in the community for their clients. In 2008, Unlimited Potential placed 60 people in positions in the competitive workforce. The majority of these positions were entry level, giving the new employee an opportunity to gain valuable work experience.
