Golf Tournament cancelled

Share

With a heavy heart, last week the Board of Directors of the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ Foundation decided to cancel the 15th Annual ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ Foundation Golf Tournament, which was originally scheduled to take place June 10 at .

The organizing committee was working so hard over the last few weeks trying to re-imagine the event, which is an important source of donations and a lot of fun. The committee had secured a possible alternative date in August as they thought through the possibilities and monitored the pandemic.

Reluctantly, the Board cancelled the tournament when it became apparent it would not be possible to host an event that would be safe for all participants and enjoyable.

However, the needs of our students have not been cancelled. We count on this annual event to help the Foundation keep encouraging and supporting our students. A student survey conducted in early April found that over 20 per cent of our students are having difficulty with basic expenses at this time.

We usually count on the tournament to bring in about $40,000. Dear friends of ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ and our students, we ask you to please consider making a donation to the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ÊÓƵ Foundation.

We sincerely hope that we will get a chance to see you on the greens in 2021!
