Thanks also to Simon Gillespie, New York Games Development Officer for organising our week-long visit and the huge planning you put in over the past few months.
We owe the Donegal NY club a huge debt of gratitude for their part in both organising a first-ever Golf Outing on our behalf in New York and for the role you played in making the trip the great success that it was.

Thank you so much.
