Dozens of golfers tee'd up in Milford Thursday to help kids in need.
The eighth annual Correctional Officers Fundraiser to benefit the Milford Fire Department's Toys for Tots campaign was held at the Orchards Golf Course.
Organizers say it was their biggest year yet.
They raised thousands of dollars and were able to fill a fire truck with dozens of donated toys.
"It's the type of tournament you want to play in because you know it's helping people out," organizer Jimbo says. "It's really helpful for the community, for the state, and for all the kids out there that are going to be without toys this year."
Organizers say a portion of profits from this year's tournament will also be donated to Yale University Hospital's ICU Toy Closet program.
More than 50 golfers participated.
