On Sunday, July 20, Future Environment Design (FED)
participated in the North Country Honor Flight (NCHF) Golf Tournament held at
the North Country Golf Course in Rouses Point, NY. It was a beautiful day for the tournament, blue skies with temperatures in the low 80’s. What a great turnout for the organization’s first
fundraising tournament. Approximately
168 golfers registered to participate in the golf tournament intended to raise
money for the mission of the North Country Honor Flight. The North Country
Honor Flight, part of the Honor Flight Network, is a local non-profit
organization created solely to honor America‘s Veterans for all their
sacrifices. Their mission is to transport America’s Veterans to
Washington, D.C. to visit those memorials dedicated to honor their service and
sacrifices.

In addition, to sponsoring a team, Future Environment Designs also sponsored the 11th hole flag. Kimberly Granmoe, when she’s not assisting Angelo Garcia, III, volunteers as an event coordinator for the NCHF. As Event Coordinator, Kimberly coordinates flags
to be flown over the Pentagon on the day the Veterans are visiting
the WWII Memorial in Washington, DC. The flag is then presented
to each Veteran in a flag case together with Certification that the flag was
flown in recognition of the Veterans Honor Flight visit to the WWII
Memorial and in recognition of the Veterans service to our Nation.

Upon completion of the tournament, all participants enjoyed a turkey dinner, with all the trimmings, which was followed by an auction consisting of over a 100 items donated from local area businesses. The Golf Tournament generated over $27,000 for the NCHF. The NCHF together with the Honor Flight Network will continue to do whatever it takes to
fulfill the dreams of our Veterans and help our heroes travel absolutely free. It is our way of paying a small tribute to
those who gave so much. Currently, top priority is given to America’s most senior heroes —
survivors of World War II and any veteran with a terminal illness who wishes to
visit THEIR memorial. Since America felt
it was important to build a memorial to the service and the ultimate sacrifice of
her veterans, the Honor Flight Network believes it’s equally important that
they actually get to visit and experience THEIR memorial.
