History of the Helen F. McDonald Memorial Golf Classic

Embark on a journey through the vibrant history of Mountain Lake Services, the esteemed Chapter of The Arc New York in Essex County.

From humble beginnings in 1974, spearheaded by the indomitable Ms. Helen F. McDonald, we've blossomed into a beacon of support for over 500 individuals, offering a myriad of services including residential care, day habilitation, supported employment, and early childhood intervention.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated in our recent golf tournament. Your involvement paid homage to Ms. McDonald's legacy, fostered friendly competition, and, most importantly, contributed to shaping brighter futures for those with developmental disabilities. Your participation not only honored the past but also fueled our ongoing mission to uplift individuals and families in our communities, providing crucial assistive technology, scholarships for aspiring Human Services professionals, and unwavering support every step of the way.

Thank you for being a part of something truly transformative!
