On May 22nd the MediSys Health Network celebrated the 20th anniversary of its annual Golf Classic fundraiser.
Each year, many look forward to the golf and wellness outing, which is a designated day of fun and relaxation – all for a good cause. This year, an impressive number of supporters which included 132 golfers blanketed the grounds of the Old Westbury Country Club.
Although the weather didn’t fully cooperate, it did not stop the excitement that radiated from our staff and guests. Everyone started the day with an all-star breakfast which fueled them for the day ahead.
After several hours of play, and relaxation, the event shifted to a more formal note. Guests retreated to the cocktail hour and dinner reception in the banquet room. They were served from elegant food stations filled with delicious dishes. MediSys Health Network President and CEO Bruce J. Flanz took a moment to extend a warm welcome to everyone and introduce the event’s honorary chairman; Dr. Cono Grasso, Chairman of the Department of Ophthalmology at Jamaica Hospital.
The highly anticipated raffle drawing began soon after. Many entered and kept their fingers tightly crossed for coveted prizes that included tickets to sporting events, a $1,000 shopping spree at Simon Malls, and airline tickets.
Overall, the event was a great success. Proceeds will benefit Flushing and Jamaica Hospital Medical Center. We thank all staff who volunteered and all friends of MediSys Health Network who supported our fundraiser. We hope to see you again next year.
