Last month marked the fourth annual GolfBC Championship at Gallagher's Canyon, the Mackenzie Tour - PGA TOUR Canada's only Okanagan event.
Once again, we are proud to say that, with the help of the Kelowna community, GolfBC and our charitable arm - the Chan Family Foundation - were able to make another charitable contribution to two very worthy causes.
As always, the event's main charitable beneficiary was the BC Cancer Foundation who received at $100,000 donation to help bring better patient care to the Okanagan Region. Specifically, this donation directly supports the Foundation's project towards improving PET/CT technology and accessibility in the Kelowna area. For more information on where this money goes and who it directly benefits, click here.
New this year, we opened up nominations and voting of a second charitable beneficiary to you - the Kelowna community! After and overwhelming amount of charity/not for profit nominations and votes, the Central Okanagan Food Bank was the recipient of a $50,000 donation.
THANK YOU to everyone who voted, and who came out and supported the event. See you next year!

June saw lots of success with the PGA of BC Golf-a-thon for ALS!
- Leading the way was Arbutus Ridge where professionals Jayme Young, Andy Hajer, and Arthur Brown golfed 100 holes each with a combined 44 birdies
- Next up was Brian Coe and Nicole Jordan from Mayfair Lakes/Head Office who, with a 4:30am start, completed a total of 175 holes each
- The following day, Gallagher's Canyon team of Lee Alarie and Jason Jurimae managed to get 63 holes in before the inclement weather (including a WILD hail storm) rolled in
-
Okanagan Golf Club's Lee Ranger, Austin Bosquet, and Conner Kozak will take their turn July 10
Thank you for your support, and if you missed out and would like to donate it's not too late!

June 16 not only marked the last day of this year's GolfBC Championship, it was also the last day as Gallagher's Canyon Superintendent for Frits Verkerk. After an impressive 35 year career at the course, Frits is off to enjoy a new (and hopefully more relaxing) role of "retiree". We would like to thank Frits for all his years of service and wish him the best of luck with his new endeavors. Thank you and congratulations to Frits!

For the first time ever, the entire Hospitality division including the Beacon, Basalt Wine and Salumeria, and the Crystal Lodge in Whistler all received the Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor. With only 10% of all businesses having earned this from their guests, this is a great accomplishment for all locations. Well done, and congratulations!
