Royal Blue Open Golf Tournament

On Monday, October 3, 2011 more than 100 individuals and representatives from companies and foundations that supported the B&O Railroad Museum’s Early Childhood Education Programs throughout 2011 gathered at Caves Valley Golf Club to celebrate the tremendous success of the fund raising effort and the excellence of the Museum’s programs. More than $180,000.00 was raised in 2011.

The Royal Blue Open was a spectacular Day of Recognition that featured a round of golf on the renowned course followed by a reception where our sponsors and supporters were recognized.  To top off the day Caves Valley provided a top-notch dinner and wine pairing experience where our guests took a transcontinental “excursion” visiting food stations from Baltimore, Spokane, San Diego and New Orleans.
