Community Events
Biddle Memorial Golf Tournament – April 29, 2024
Troy and Baden shared a passion for sports along with a commitment to family, friends and community. With these ideals in mind, in 2018 Troy’s colleagues at Carroll Biddle Bilanko created the Biddle Memorial Golf Tournament. This annual tournament gives Troy’s colleagues, clients, friends and family an event to come together on Bainbridge Island to celebrate Troy and Baden and help carry their love and commitment to the community forward.
Money raised from the tournament goes to the foundation and the Biddle Memorial Scholarship, which is awarded to graduating students who have made a contribution youth sports and athletics in the form of leadership, mentorship, sportsmanship and/or ambassadorship.
