The 24th Annual Golf Classic One for the Books!

The 24^th annual Golf Classic was at Edgewood Tahoe on Monday October 16^th, 2017. This one-of-a-kind tournament showcased 124 golfers playing throughout the day. The on-course games were run by: Launching FORE Charity, where they had a ‘potato-like cannon’ that shot the player’s golf balls roughly 200 yards, DIXON Golf, and US Bank. Tahoe Production House was on-course conducting interviews and taking pictures of the golfers throughout the morning. This year, silent auction prizes were located all over the course and ranged from ‘staycations’ to golf packages. The Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe raised over $4,500 in silent auction items and we can’t thank our silent auction sponsors enough! Sponsors included: Tahoe Production House, Harrah’s Lake Tahoe, Clear Creek Tahoe, Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club, Cleveland Wedges, Vail Resorts, Tatum Ranch, Chalet View Lodge, Raven Golf Club, Gray’s Crossing, Beach Retreat, Old Greenwood, and American Century Championship.  Thank you for your continuous support of the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe!

In all, the 24^th Annual Golf Classic was fun had by everyone and we are thankful for the generous support that is shown throughout this golf tournament.

This year we raised money to keep the Lights on Afterschool as we know how important the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe is to the community of South Lake Tahoe. Without the Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe, approximately 350 children a day would be without a place to go afterschool. To continue to help the Boys & Girls Club keep the lights on afterschool, please consider being a part of Club 25.26. Further donations or memberships can be found on our website www.bgclt.org.
