“Honoring our veterans and service members is one of the most important commitments we can make,” said County Executive Jim Tedesco. “Providing a free round of golf is a small gesture of our gratitude for their sacrifices and service to protect our freedoms. We hope this opportunity offers a moment of relaxation and enjoyment to those who have given so much to our nation. On behalf of the entire Bergen County community, I extend my deepest thanks to all active-duty members and veterans—you have our unwavering respect and appreciation.”

“Freedom comes at a cost, paid for by the sacrifices of the courageous men and women who serve in our armed forces. As a small expression of gratitude, Bergen County is proud to offer free golf to all veterans and service members this week,” said Bergen County Commissioner Steven Tanelli. “This gesture serves as a reminder of the unity and support that strengthen our communities.”
