Dear Friend, 

We very much hope that you can join us for:
on Friday, June 8th

 

An exciting day of Golf awaits you at the Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course on the 8th of June when the American-Scottish Foundation hosts its 15th Annual John Muir Golf Tournament there.  Proceeds from the day will benefit the ongoing upkeep and improvement to the John Muir Nature Trail which the ASF is proud to have led the development of in 1997. 
 
Although the course can be challenging, many who join us do so "for a great day of golf on a beautiful course".  If Golf is not for you, please consider joining us for the Awards BBQ Dinner immediately following the return of our golfers.  Details about tickets and ways to be involved are noted below.

 

Please visit our website regularly for additional news & updates and please 'like' us on Facebook so we can keep you informed on our many events and initatives.

 

Kind Regards,
