Last year’s Golf Outing to be held in May 2021 was cancelled. Details concerning the 2022 outing will be posted as they become available.

The 2019 golf outing at Douglaston Golf Course WAS A GREAT SUCCESS.  For a change, it didn’t rain!

The Executive Board would like to thank all our golfers and sponsors for making last year’s event a success and look forward to seeing you at this year’s outing.
