Dear Golfer,

This is a special year for the McDonald’s Challenger Celebrity Golf Classic as we move towards a major milestone in fund raising. After 16 years, we are on the verge of passing the One Million Dollar mark this year which is such a special moment for us after all these years.

Currently we have raised over $940,000 for various children’s charities in BC while creating “A Million Memories” for the kids.

We would like to invite you to join us in Celebrating “A Million Memories” on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 at the Meadow Gardens Golf Club, in Pitt Meadows.

The McDonalds Challenger Celebrity Golf Classic is the largest annual fund raiser for Challenger in BC. The Challenger Baseball program gives children with cognitive or physical disabilities, the opportunity to enjoy all the benefits of playing organized baseball “In a league … On a team … In a uniform”, just like their able-bodied peers, while creating “A Million Memories.”

It is because of your participation, donations and generous sponsorships that we are able to celebrate “A Million Memories” with all proceeds staying here in BC going to support various children’s charities across the province. The main beneficiary is the BC Challenger Baseball program, but we also support the Canucks for Kids Fund, Ronald McDonald House, and the Vancouver Canadians Baseball Foundation.

This event is well known as a fun filled day of “scramble” golf and socializing, while raising funds for some great charities. Each foursome is will be teamed up with a local celebrity, either a Vancouver Canuck or BC Lions alumnus, or a TV personality. Once again, we have partnered with Rogers and Sportsnet as our Presenting Sponsor. Caroline Cameron will be our MC, and it promises to be a fun and entertaining banquet following the golf. The day begins with check-in starting at 9:30 am, and the shotgun start at 11:30am. The reception, silent auction, dinner, prizes and live auction will start at 5:30 pm. We aim to have the event over by 800pm.

The tournament is limited to 180 golfers and is always sold out. The only way we can grow our revenue to benefit the kids, is through our sponsorship opportunities. Please consider a sponsorship this year, so we can achieve our One Million Dollar fund raising milestone. Registration, prize donation and sponsorship forms are attached. If you have any questions about the tournament, sponsorship, or donating of an auction item, please contact me at [email protected] or 604-988-9232.

Don’t be disappointed register early!

The tournament not only provides participants with a day of fun; it also allows us to share with ® you the wonderful story of the Little League Challenger Baseball program in . Yours truly,
