Vancouver Men's Golf Classic

Sep 15, 2003

By Catherine Barr

 

The prestigious Vancouver Men's Golf Classic (formerly known as the Men's Media Classic) took place on Sep. 15 to support The BC Children's Hospital Foundation and Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children. Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club was filled with stick swingers from the North Shore, all of whom dedicated their time and thousands of dollars of donations to this very worthwhile cause. An exciting $250,000 shoot-out, sponsored by First Associaties ended the day on a high note followed by a gourmet dinner and prizes galore. Congratulation everyone.
