Chapter members attended the 1st Annual Tommy Savino Memorial Golf Outing at The Meadows Golf Club in Lincoln Park to support the Where Angels Play Foundation and their efforts to build a playground in Greenview Park\/Pequannock, in memory of Tommy Savino. The event was outstanding and the weather was brisk, but sunny. Our Hole Sponson sign was on the 16th hole and we were honored to make the “Donors List” published at the event. Thank you to Chapter XIII for supporting the event and helping to make the Memorial Playground happen. Great day, great support and great friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n
