Realtors’ Challenge Cup to take place June 22 at Grand Oaks Country Club, Huguenot
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. (June 16, 2016) – Members of the Staten Island Board of Realtors (SIBOR) will be staging a Realtors’ Challenge Cup fund-raiser to benefit a new Kids Against Cancer unit at Staten Island University Hospital Northwell Health, Ocean Breeze.
The golf outing is scheduled for Wednesday, June 22, at the Grand Oaks Country Club, 200 Huguenot Ave., Huguenot, and is being chaired by Ron Molcho, a SIBOR director.
Staten Island University Hospital Northwell Health and Kids Against Cancer (KAC) predict that the planned suite will double the hospital’s capacity for outpatient chemotherapy treatments as alternatives to hospitalization.
Children with cancer and blood-related disorders will have a child-friendly environment containing features like a one-wall fish tank, running waterfall with a teen’s corner, interactive video games, an IT wall with touch screens, and an exposition of fluttering butterflies.
