Island Golf Club?
« on: February 01, 2011, 05:10:14 PM »
I friend of mine has an old club in his office. It is stamped "FE Rigden, Island Golf Club, Garden City, NY". I did a Google search and found an old advertisement that listed professional golfers and had FE Rigden with the same information. Was he refering to GCGC when he said "Island Golf Club"? If so, when did that change? If not, which club was he talking about?

GCGC was Island Golf Links when it first opened, but that changed within a couple of years.
