12th Annual Charity Golf Tournament Reaches Event Proceeds Goal and Raises an Incredible $50,000 for The Darling Home for Kids


There was sun, there were clouds, and yes there was some rain, but there was no stopping the more than 120 golfers who joined us on July 23rd, 2009 at Lionhead Golf & Country Club to support the 12th Annual Darling Home for Kids Charity Golf Tournament. Despite the morning showers, the rain held off during the afternoon, and the day was a complete success raising an incredible $50,000 for the Home.

Congratulations to the 1st place foursome at the 12th Annual Charity Golf Tournament, The Darling/Eagen Family foursome, which included golfers Michele Darling, Anita Boyce, Sue Black, and Nick Kenney. 2nd and 3rd place went to FitPoint and Spray-Pak/K-G Packaging, respectively.

We would like to extend our appreciation to Aker Construction Canada Ltd. (Lunch Sponsor) and The Darling/Eagen Family (Game Card Sponsor) for their Silver sponsorships. Our gratitude also goes out to Lee Paige of Spray-Pak/K-G Packaging whose incredible support played a vital role in the success of the event. Thank you to all of our Bronze Sponsors, Darling Sponsors, Milestone Sponsors, silent auction and prize donors and dinner guests. Please know that in supporting our Signature Events you are helping to make a difference in the lives of the children and families who benefit from the services offered at The Darling Home for Kids.

In addition, the success of our annual golf tournament could not be attained if it were not for the hard work and dedication of the 2009 Golf Committee. Thank you to the following committee members for their amazing support of this worthwhile event: Sheron Lau (Event Chair), Peter Campbell, Michael Eagen, Henry Franc, Maureen Inwood, Scot Luren, Anne McGrath, Jason Pelaccia, Lynn Sigurdson, Terry Stewart, Bob Vancso, and Janice Vancso. In addition, we would like to extend a warm thank you to all of the volunteers who supported the event the day of the tournament, including our “Pro” Tom Fraser, our “Emcee” John Hinnen, and our photographers, Jim Sigurdson and Tina Gregg-Byard.

We look forward with enthusiasm to the 2010 tournament and hope you will join us once again! If you are interested in helping to plan next year’s tournament, please contact Ashley Miller, Volunteer Coordinator.
