Spring is here and that means we are gearing up once again for the Golf4Yuri tournament.
To date Golf4Yuri has donated close to $ 60,000 for people living with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) in Peel and Halton.
All proceeds from Golf4Yuri will go to The Brain Injury Association of Peel and Halton (BIAPH)’s respite program named in Yuri’s memory. The program provides services to ABI survivors and families who are primary caregivers to individuals with an ABI. For more information go to www.biaph.com
As we approach our SEVENTH tournament, I am truly grateful and humbled by your continuous support and generosity. What a wonderful way to remember and honour the life of Yuri! A very special thank you goes to last year’s sponsors: Promation Nuclear (registration handouts), QRC Logistics Ltd. (golf-carts), Help Unlimited (dinner) and Will Barristers LLP (dessert). Our gold hole sponsors: Pace Law Firm and Tony and Denise Otten and all of our 23 hole sponsors, the hole-in-one sponsors; Frost Pontiac, Buick, Cadillac Ltd. and Sound Insurance. Finally, thank you the 160 golfers that came out in the pouring rain and freezing temperatures TO GOLF, DINE AND HELP A GREAT CAUSE. Many thanks also go out to everyone that donated prizes to our silent auction and raffle.
This tournament would not happen without the dedication of my two “rocks”; George Anderson our M.C./ video man and Dean Livingston for donating his time and talent to make our sponsor signs. Last but not least to “my girls” at registration, in the clubhouse and on the course Erica, Alexis, Kat, Carly, Grant, Lindsay, Leanne and Linda.
Last year was another sellout with 160 golfers and again we had to disappoint a few latecomers. I urge you to get your registration in early to avoid disappointment. Please understand that we cannot hold your foursome before you have all paid. The tournament keeps growing thanks to the support of Yuri’s large network of friends, their families and others that come out to support this cause. Please see attached information for sponsorship opportunities and pricing. We are always looking for donations of prizes to the silent auction or raffle. For organizational purposes, we would very much appreciate if you would let us know the items and approximate value prior to the tournament. This year we are due for another beautiful sunny day with temperatures in the 20’s. We are back in the River Room and Kelly is lining up a superb dinner menu. With this early spring, the course will be in excellent shape thanks to the grounds crew at Caledon .
Look forward to seeing you all May 15th for another day of friendship, celebration and some good golf.
Sincerely, Jorun
