Friends of St. Mary’s Golf Tournament

Each fall as the leaves start to turn, the Friends of St. Mary’s Auxiliary gather in a spirited game of golf to raise funds for not one but TWO bursaries for nursing research at St. Mary’s.  This wonderful initiative enjoys much success year after year and allows us to continue to invest in our valuable nurses.
