23rd annual Colliers Turley Martin Tucker/Ronald McDonald House Golf Tournament

Another Record Breaking Year!!!!

Led by Co-Chairs Denny Ahal and Scott Bazoian, the 90-member strong Ronald McDonald House Golf Committee kicked it up a notch this year raising a record $675,000!

More than 400 supporters gathered for the Dinner Auction and dined on a first-class meal prepared by Chef Bruce Christensen of Forest Hills Country Club

.

Great auction items including many wonderful trips, sport memorabilia and events, jewelry and more were available for bidding.

The highlight of the evening was the Jaggard Family sharing their story about their son, Michael, and how their stay at house has been a blessing.

The Denny Ahal Award recognizes outstanding service, and this year’s award went to Rick Mauger and the Coca Cola Company, for their continued support of the Ronald McDonald House.

The Sponsor-a-Family program brought in a record breaking $151,000 to help our 39 families staying at the Ronald McDonald House and the many more that will seek comfort in the Ronald McDonald Family Rooms.

The bad weather stayed away long enough for all 260 golfers on June 9. After the golfers finished a full round of golf they were able to indulge on another one of Chef Bruce’s wonderful meals.

Special thanks to Colliers Turley Martin Tucker, Major Brands, and all for our other Sponsors for their tremendous generosity.
