On June 14, 2017, Eastern Long Island Hospital honored two of its gold level sponsors, Patricia and Donald Brennan at the 25th Anniversary ELIH Golf Classic. The event attracted over 125 golfers and raised over $125,000 to benefit ELIH’s Emergency Department and its mission to provide essential healthcare services to the communities of the North Fork and Shelter Island.

According to a press release issued by the hospital, the Brennans were recognized at the dinner for their dedication to the hospital and the North Fork community. As major supporters, the couple said they realize the need for essential quality services close to home. Pat Brennan, an R.N., “understands the importance of quality care close to home and credits ELIH for providing top-rated care for four generations of her family.”

Donald Brennan said, “I want everyone in the community to join me in supporting Eastern Long Island Hospital. The care and medical expertise ELIH provides are essential to both year-round and summer residents. Having access to a community hospital of this caliber adds to our quality of life. People tend to forget about the hospital until they need it. Many of us will only remember the hospital when we are in the ambulance, but don’t wait — the hospital needs your support now.”

“Eastern Long Island Hospital is especially appreciative to the Brennans for their support through the years,” said Paul J. Connor III. “We owe a great deal of gratitude to both Don and Pat for their generosity and for encouraging others to follow their lead. It is because of people like the Brennans that our events are successful.”

This year’s Golf Classic co-chairs, Walter J. Krupski Jr. and David M. Fujita said, “we both want to acknowledge Gardiner’s Bay County Club for hosting our 25th Anniversary Golf Classic and for conducting a first-class tournament.”

The event was sponsored by Bridgehampton National Bank.
