Hotly contested, but a day of camaraderie and informality.”

Following play, the teams will enjoy an evening of Forsgate’s traditional Writer Cup steak and lobster dinner and the awarding of this year’s Writer Cup to the winning team. At the dinner’s conclusion, Tagmarshal will present a charitable donation to the Forsgate Foundation to benefit a variety of community service organizations and area caddie scholarship foundations.
