PARADISE VALLEY GOLF COURSE and NGCOA Canada Members Raise Over $100,000 for Children’s Healthcare Across Canada!

A big thank-you to all the NGCOA Canada member courses that held Golf Gives events at their courses throughout the 2009 season!

The NGCOA Canada, as a result of Golf Gives events, donated $72,300 to the Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids, an initiative that raises funds for the Mike Weir Foundation and the Children’s Miracle Network, both of which are dedicated to advancing children’s healthcare across Canada. In addition to this donation, over $30,000 was donated by NGCOA Canada facilities directly to Children’s Hospital Foundations across Canada, bringing the total amount donated by NGCOA Canada courses to an impressive $102,000.

Prizing through the Children’s Miracle Network and the Mike Weir Foundation were made available for participating courses and golfers. Congratulations to the winning golf course, Paradise Valley Golf Course in Medicine Hat, AB, and to the winning golfer Art Fors, from Surrey, BC. Both winners receive a trip for 2 to the Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids Annual Fundraising Event being held at the St. Charles Country Club, in Winnipeg, MB.

The NGCOA Canada will once again run Golf Gives events at member courses throughout the 2010 season, raising funds for the Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids in support of the Mike Weir Foundation and the Children’s Miracle Network. A member of the NGCOA Canada Team will be contacting you shortly to secure your participation for the 2010 season.
