PEI Golf Classic

Home game tonight! Puck drop 7:50pm🌮

Game day! Puck drop 7:50pm🌮

A couple of looooong-time supporters approached us about putting together a golf day in support of a charity. A much smaller day and by no means a celebrity/corporate event that so many of you graciously supported over the past 25 years.
We said 25 years was the end of a great run and it was .

Between the crew of us, we came up with a great group of friends and we are all looking forward to a fun day today. During a pandemic, days like this can be healthy and the money raised for charities like the Upper Room Foodbank muchly needed.

Thanks again for the continued support:

This morning the world lost a great man who happened to be a great friend and supporter of our event as a celebrity for 25 years. He put many a smile on the faces and laugh in the bellies of all those he played with. RIP John Hughes!

Hard to believe we are less than a month away. We aren't wishing summer away but you can purchase your tickets today. www.eastlinkcentrepei.com Eastlink Centre Charlottetown Prince Edward Island Tourism The PEI Fall Flavours Festival Upstreet Craft Brewing Canadian Cove MusselsAtlantic Aqua FarmsRAW Oyster Company

No event can get along without sponsors. We’re very fortunate to have Cisco back as our long-time Presenting Sponsor. Thanks Rod Murphy and crew!

Where else will you find the amount of talent playing our kitchen party? Okay... other than CBMF this weekend.

These folks are going to rock the place a week from tonight.

After a couple days of recovering, we are missing the great people and fantastic times that made our event such a success. We will reveal our total when we get all invoicing dealt with. In the meantime, here are some pics as a reminder if the fun. Feel free to add your favourite moments here too if you were part of the event.

None of these times are possible without the tremendous support of our volunteers, musicians, teams, sponsors and celebrities. Thanks again everyone!
