    The great year of golf that got me into the 2021 ANWA all started with The Donna... I won't ever forget that. Just really appreciate all your kindness!

  • Alexis Florio; Columbia University Women’s Golf Class of ‘22
    The Donna Andrews Invitational was one of my favorite tournaments of the summer! The tournament offered a competitive field of junior, college, and mid-am golfers and Boonsboro CC was a fun and challenging track. The golf staff, committee members, and volunteers made the event run seamlessly and were so supportive of women’s golf and growing the game

  • Lauren Greenlief; 2015 USGA Mid-Amateur Champion
    It was a great week. The course is in excellent condition and it was just a great atmosphere out there. There were a ton of spectators, and Boonsboro Country Club really came out and supported the event, which is amazing for women’s golf. I think the tournament was just extremely well run, and I’m looking to coming back in the future.

  • Jillian Drinkard, 2019 NCAA Division II POY; Methodist University Women’s Golf
    I was fortunate to be given one of the first invitations to The Inaugural Donna Andrews Invitational 2019. It was a memorable tournament experience in which I made many lifelong friendships. There were a lot of great players and it was one of the most well organized and fun amateur tournaments I have ever competed in. I hope to return to Boonsboro CC and play in The Donna every year!

  • Nicole Adam, 2019 NC Junior Girl's Player of The Year
    I have so many good things to say about The Donna Andrews Invitational. To start, when you arrive at the golf course you feel at home. The town has supported the tournament so much and has gathered so many volunteers who will do anything to make your time even better. The meals provided to the players and their family at no additional cost were fantastic and allowed everyone to come together and made opportunities to create lifetime friendships.

  • Katherine Schuster; 2019 Dixie Amateur and 2019 Silver Belle Champion
    The tournament was run amazingly well... It was very professional, and definitely a first class event. Can't wait to come back!

About Eleanor


My daughter Eleanor Marjorie-Anne Washburn was a tough force of nature. Born February 4, 2018, she was vibrant, feisty, loving, and sweet, but she was destined to fight with heart, with tenacity, in innocence, against a relentless enemy.

She loved music and movies - Taylor Swift, Frozen and Tangled were her favorites. And like Taylor, Elsa and Rapunzel, she didn’t need anyone else to validate her. She accepted any challenge set before her with a spirited independence: an endearing blend of “I’m doing this myself” but “be there if I need you, Dad.”   

Medulloblastoma tried to steal her spirit but failed, miserably. She fought hard, tooth and nail, until her very last breath, with a Champion's will. She would be proud to have her name and her fighting spirit attached to such an elite, female empowering event like The Donna Andrews Invitational.

Thank you for honoring my “feisty little fighter girl” and her warrior's spirit. It comforts me to know her memory will be honored by a tournament established to celebrate exceptional women.

If you’d like to join the fight to end pediatric cancer, please consider making a donation in Eleanor’s name (see below) to the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation.

I love you, Eleanor.

Eric Washburn

(Son of tournament founder, Steve Washburn)
