SCARBOROUGH, NY— For one joyful summer day each year, the contracting community gathers, with golf clubs and fellowship to support industry affairs, at the CIC Annual Golf Classic held at legendary Sleepy Hollow Country Club here in Westchester. This year’s staging on Mon., July 7, attracted dozens of company and organization sponsors along with many key elected and public works officials who help advance construction projects and programs in the region.
