Golf Associations
There are four busy associations, MGA (Men's Golf Assoc). MSGA (Men's Seniors), WNGA (Women's Nine Hole) and the WGA (Women's Golf). All are inclusive and considered the Welcome Wagon to new residents of the community. All are philanthropic organizations. The MGA has been committed to fund raising activities working with Arnie's Army and the Prostate Cancer Foundation. In 2011 the BallenIsles MGA set a national one day money earnings record on behalf of Arnie's Army. In 2012, yet another new one day record was set. Both events were noted on Reuters big screen overlooking Times Square.
The WNGA is committed to Play for Pink setting new fund raising records the last 3 years. The WGA also holds an annual event on behalf of Play for Pink and the MSGA raises money for the USGA 1st Tee program.

Famous quotes containing the words golf and/or associations:
“Years ago we discovered the exact point, the dead center of middle age. It occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.”
—Franklin Pierce Adams (18811960)
“Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic. The reviewer can draw free- floating disagreeable associations to a book by implying that the book is completely unimportant without saying exactly why, and carefully avoiding any clear images that could capture the readers full attention.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
