News from Shelter Island’s Goat Hill: June 19, 2025
The Shelter Island Country Club (SICC) proudly hosted the East Hampton American Legion Post 419 in their annual fundraising outing to support the DeBord Scholarship Fund.
This event, now 15 years running, is a staple in the club’s tournament schedule, as nearly 50 golfers spend the day at “The Goat” competing in an 18-hole, four-person scramble.
This year’s outing took place on Tuesday, June 17, with a 9 o’clock shotgun start. Thanks to the generous donation of numerous private carts by SICC members, the club was able to easily accommodate the large number of golfers. The outing featured multiple tee and event sponsors from local organizations, as well as beverages donated by Michelob Ultra. The 1901 Grill provided a light breakfast and coffee before the round, followed by food and beverage service delivered out on the course.
It was a great day of golf, community, and generosity — all in support of a meaningful cause. SICC looks forward to continuing this tradition for many years to come.
