The Bay Ridge Volunteer Fire Company will hold the First Annual Bay Ridge Open golf event on June 20th at Top of the World Golf Resort. Firefighters, locals, and supporters will gather for a day of golf and community support overlooking Lake George.

Organizers said the tournament will include team competition, sponsorship opportunities, and donations to help the fire department's ongoing needs. The funds earned from the event will be utilized to renovate the property and acquire emergency response equipment.

Community people and local companies are encouraged to form teams, sponsor the event, or make donations. According to the Bay Ridge Volunteer Fire Company, events like these create community partnerships while also funding the resources need to defend the area.
