Participants in the ‘Skip Linhart Golf Tournament’.

Ben Hogan once said: “The only thing a golfer needs is more daylight.” For all those who love golf in Huletts – there were two newsworthy events that took place on the Huletts golf course recently that are certainly newsworthy.

The annual ‘Skip Linhart Golf Tournament’ was held on 8/17/19 and included 39 golfers from the Huletts community. The winners of this year’s tournament were: Mark Eliseo, Dick Lyons, Deckkers Davidson, Doreen Stoecker and Mike Machiski.

Children who participated in the first annual Youth Golf Tournament.

The first annual Youth Golf Tournament was held on 8/30/19 and included approximately 30 children ranging from the ages of five through twelve. The program was organized by Haley Davidow and assisted by others. Trophies were awarded to winners of the various age groups.

Many thanks to all those who worked so hard to make these two events happen.

On Saturday, July 27th the Huletts Landing Volunteer Fire Company opened its doors to the community with an afternoon of activities, demonstrations, give-aways and ice cream!

“STOP THE BLEED”, a New York State Campaign that educates and informs the public to learn the importance of early intervention of injury was the theme of the open house this past Saturday. The event began with a poster contest for children, ages 8-18. Three judges chose three winners, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, who were awarded gifts for the creativity of their posters. All participants in the poster contest were given notebooks for school.

Children received fire hats, stickers, tattoos, and pencil kits to take home. Every 15 minutes there was a drawing for adults and the winner was given a “STOP THE BLEED” kit (a $60.00 value) which included training and instruction on its use.

Throughout the Open House fire fighters and first responders demonstrated use of fire extinguishers and fire hoses. All three fire engines were out for children to climb aboard and explore. Children were delighted to try on real ‘turnout gear’ used by real fire fighters. Brochures and educational materials were provided on home fire safety.

Children and adults alike enjoyed 140 ice cream sandwiches…….an event favorite!

The Huletts Landing Volunteer Fire Company would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for its support and interest in this event and throughout the year.

Bobby Gorman, son of Millie and Bob Gorman, of Sunset Bay, married AnnMarie Spiezia on Saturday June 22nd on a perfect day on Long Island.

Many friends from Huletts Landing made the four hour plus trip to attend. A great time was had by all. The honeymoon was spent in Hawaii.

The groom’s parents would like to thank all of their Huletts friends for their support, kindness and good-wishes.
