Preliminary numbers indicate that the Boys & Girls Clubs of Carlsbad raised just over $100,000 at its annual fundraising golf tournament held April 24 at Aviara Golf Club
TaylorMade Golf Company was honored for their many years of collaboration, as reflected in the tournament’s theme “Clubs for a Brighter Future,” and CEO Mark King served as the Honorary Chair. Other major sponsors included Forte For Children, NRG, Interior Specialists, ThermoFisher, Retirement Solutions and Hudson Printing.
A special bonus was given to sponsors … in addition to the tournament itself, sponsors attended a VIP Pre-Event Party held on April 17 at TaylorMade’s exclusive Kingdom (which is open only to touring pros). Guests participated in contests, took advantage of shopping opportunities at TMaG’s employee store, dined on delicious taste treats courtesy of West Steakhouse & Seafood, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
