There are only 12 foursomes not spoken for in the Tournament. It is important that you get your fees in ASAP. If you have not made your intentions known, there is the likelihood that you will not be entered in the Tournament on Sept. 11. Please notify us of your intention to enter a foursome and submit your fees ASAP to insure that you are placed. If you have submitted your fees, you have received an email indicating your starting position in the Tournament. If you have reserved a spot, then you have received an email indicating that your place has been reserved pending your submission of fees. Deadline on fees is, again, August 15th.

Thank you,
Walter Barlow

Good Afternoon Members,

The time is drawing near for the McGregor Memorial Golf Tournament. As we have stated in the past, the foursomes for the Tournament are filled on a first come/first served basis. Unfortunately, we have not heard from many of our returning foursomes, and we have heard from new foursomes that have secured their spots in the Tournament. There will be officers, friends and family joining us this year from as far away as Reno, Nevada. Therefore there may be some groups that may not make it into the Tournament.

If you wish to secure a foursome for September 11th at Agawam Hunt, you must let your intentions be known by contacting us through our email address. The deadline for having your fees for your foursome in is August 15th, 2012. So, let us know if your playing and have your donation in by the deadline. The sooner you send it will guarentee your place in the Tournament. You will receive email confirmation indicating your placement on the course.

Hope to see you then!
Walter Barlow

Dear Friend,

We would, again, like to thank all our Sponsors and Donors for their kindness and generosity over the past 10 years. The Board of Directors is proud to announce that the Major Alister C. McGregor Memorial 11th Anniversary Golf Tournament will be held, again, at Agawam Hunt Country Club, located at 15 Roger Williams Avenue, East Providence, Rhode Island on Tuesday, September 11th 2012. Also, this year, we welcome a new Tournament Organizer, Sgt. Kenneth Luke, who will be joined by our Director of Operations, Jim Miller, in coordinating this year’s Tournament.

We hope that you will consider contributing to the continued success of our partnership which provides scholarships to family members of fallen police officers through an endowment at Roger Williams University. This is our opportunity to say thank you to the men and women of law enforcement that serve and protect you, and patronize your businesses. By contributing, you are joining our family and a partnership that consists of over two three individuals and businesses, and forty-six agencies and organizations. As an incentive, we encourage all our partners to show their loyalty to all of our caring friends that remember and acknowledge the sacrifices made by our fallen brothers and sisters and their families.

We are asking for your support, in the form of donations and tee sponsorships. Attached to this letter is a donation, sponsorship and Tournament participant form. Please fill it out and forward it along with your donation, sponsorship and/or Tournament fees to The McGregor Memorial Fund, 500 Waterman Avenue #287, East Providence RI, 02914. As in the past, foursomes will be awarded on a first-come/first-served basis. The Tournament is always full; therefore, it is important to get your entries in early. All cash, gift certificates, and prizes donated for this event are tax deductible (Federal I.D. #222509511).

On behalf of the members of the East Providence Police Department and the McGregor Family, thank you for your caring and support.

2012 Donor Form & Letter

Dear Friends,

I have been a little lax in getting messages out because I have been working on a few other projects. One of which is the dedication of the East Providence Police Station in Al’s name. On Tuesday, December 27th, 2011 at 11AM, the City of East Proviidence and the McGregor Family will be dedicating the Major Alister C. McGregor Pubiic Safety Complex. The public is invited to attend the ceremony at 750 Waterman Avenue, East Providence, RI with refreshments at Breed Hall located at the Senior Center at the corner of Waterman and Pawtucket Avenues following the brief dedication program. I realize that this is short notice, I was waiting for the plaque to be placed on the building to make sure we would meet the deadline.

This year marks the 10th year since Al passed. It only seems fitting that we mark the day with something to continue his legacy for his Family and the Department. This was the building where he worked. He kept a banker’s light burning in his office at night. The light stayed on for some time after he passed. The light was symbolic. To some it made them feel like they were home when they pulled in the lot. To others it was a simple reminder that he must be watching. I can not think of a better place to place his name.

I hope to see you there on the 27th. I will be updating the website with all kinds oif new things after the 1st. To all of our Sponsors, Donors, Golfers and Friends have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Sincerely,
Walter H. Barlow, Jr.
