The Evergreens was founded in 1919 in Bound Brook, NJ, by the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey.
The Evergreens recently hosted their 5th Annual Pneumonia Open, a resident golf tournament at the community. Five residents participated in this 9-hole final cup tournament on the community’s Putting Green — the culmination of a season’s worth of mini tournaments in order to determine an overall winner.
Congratulations to resident Dick Meehan, the 2016 season winner and three-time consecutive Pneumonia Open champion. Meehan tied with fellow resident Ron Flynn for the lowest score after 9-holes of play, but pulled out a victory in a nail-biting 3-hole, tie-breaking match.
As this year’s champion, Meehan won a gift card to Golf Galaxy. His name will once again also be etched onto a commemorative trophy which will be displayed in a common area at The Evergreens.
