Annual Charity Golf Tournament


On Saturday May 23, 2009, we will be hosting our 2nd Annual Charity Golf Tournament in support of Dream Makers. This will take place once again at the Bear Creek Golf Club in Barrie. Registration for the event is $125 per person (or $500 per 4-some). Deadline for registration is Friday May 1st. Registration forms will soon be available on the SCS “P” drive only. Those who attended last year had a great time (except for the rain).

Please start thinking about your 4-somes. If you want to come and golf but don’t have a 4-some, please submit your name to be put on a team. It would be appreciated if payment for each golfer is submitted along with the registration form. (If you are the one filling out the registration form for your 4-some you must collect the funds and submit for the 4-some). Cash would be the preferred form of payment as we need to pay the Club the day of the event. If you absolutely must pay by cheque please make it payable to Dream Makers.

Hole sponsorship is $125 per hole with 100% being donated directly to Dream Makers. I am challenging all Platoons as well as Management to sponsor a hole. Last year, even the recruit class sponsored a hole.

Registration will start at 9:00 a.m. Our goal is to have enough players to have a Shotgun Start which will begin at 12:00 noon. Tee assignments will be handed out the day of the tournament when you register. However, if we do not have enough players for a Shotgun start we will have to go to a random start. If a random start is required, schedules of your tee-off times will be provided prior to May 23rd as well as a copy available at the registration desk the day of the event.

Canadian Tire money donations are still being accepted. This will help in the purchase of prizes for the tournament.

I will also gladly accept any donations/gifts that can be used as door prizes, raffles or silent auction.

Please forward your names to either Fiona or myself as soon as possible. Should you have any questions do not hesitate to contact either Fiona or myself.

Thanks

The Birth of the Dream Makers Blog


When I met Mario and he offered a donation of teddy bears to take to the children of the Holy Cross Anglican School in San Pedro, Belize, http://holycrossbelize.blogspot.com I felt that a door had been opened. Mario explained a little to me about Dream Makers and when I learned of all the help they give to children, how many smiles they make possible, I was excited to become a volunteer, contributing where I could. So this is where the blog begins.........
