Road to Gold Golf Tournament
Quinn Pumps presents The 4th Annual Road to Gold Golf Tournament on September 13th, 2010. This Tournament is an annual fundraiser to support ASDCC's programs and services to emerging level athletes and coaches in Central Alberta. Last year we successfully raised a total of $25,000 to provide community sport services and programs to local up and coming athletes.
Again this year, funds raised will assist the ASDC – Central to provide quality programs at low cost to athletes in Central Alberta. We would like to extend a big thank you to the Ron MacLean Foundation for their participation in the past tournaments and their years of community support.
This year's event will be held on September 13, 2010 at the Red Deer Golf & Country Club with a reception/registration on September 12, Shark's Garage, Red Deer Lodge.
