Our 60th Spring Gala at CYC Belmont Station
Saturday May 4th 2019
Cocktails at 6:00 Dinner at 7:00
In Keeping with IGSS Traditions, Black Tie Preferred
We gather at CYC Belmont Station to Induct New Goats and Present Special Awards. The evening is Black Tie Preferred. Goats and their guests look forward to seeing their fellow Goats dressed in something other than Foulies.
A small amount of business is handled including the Election of New Flag Officers, but the real reasons to be there are for the presentation of the Fresh Water Award & The Fastest Goats to the Island, along with the Induction of our New Goats!
Our 2019 Fresh Water Award Recipient
Lloyd Karzen
Our 2019 Inductees
Our Inductees are invited to tell A Favorite Story
from their experiences during A Mac Race...
Always a highlight of the evening!
