The John Orlandini Memorial Golf Tournament

John Orlandini left an unforgettable mark on St. Francis and on the countless people fortunate enough to know him. He was a visionary, storyteller, friend, colleague, classmate, and proud Golden Knight. He had a gift for bringing people together, and his passion, generosity, and unmistakable heart made him truly one of a kind.

More than 37 years ago, John and a small group of fellow alumni created an event with a simple purpose: bring the St. Francis community together. That gathering became the St. Francis Golf Classic—a tradition that has continued to grow, bringing generations of Golden Knights together while raising more than $1.5 million to support over 500 students.

On Monday, October 5th, we will come together once again in John’s memory—to celebrate friendship, community, and the enduring bonds of St. Francis. Proceeds from the tournament will benefit our financial aid program, helping provide more young men with the transformative, lifelong gift of a St. Francis education.

We hope you’ll join us as we make new memories together, while continuing the legacy of John Orlandini, and St. Francis High School. Go Knights!
