Nor’easter Blackout Threatens Historic Golf Links Hospitality
I remember the fierce nor’easter back in 2003 that knocked out power across Southampton Village, including Shinnecock Hills. The wind howled and rain pounded while the historic golf club's hospitality services faced imminent shutdown. Without electricity, refrigeration failed, and food service came to a halt, risking major losses during peak summer season when the club sees its highest foot traffic.
Our crew rolled in with a heavy-duty generator rental that same afternoon. We set it up near the clubhouse’s main kitchen, powering refrigeration units and lighting. The golf club was back in business within hours, saving their summer bookings and preserving food supplies. The quick response kept the historic ambiance alive without skipping a beat.
"East End Rental Power saved our summer season during that storm—fast, reliable, and professional."
Mark L., Shinnecock Hills Golf Club Manager
