Thank you to everyone involved in putting on this golf tournament. We’re proud to announce that we raised $12,002.64 for local charities.

Each of them also has passionate, caring and dedicated people that give so much of their time, knowledge and energy into improving our community.

• Boys Republic – To give adolescent youth with behavioral, educational, and emotional difficulties an opportunity to achieve their maximum potential for responsible, self-directed life within the community.

• Chino Rotary Club – To connect leaders within the community, exchange ideas about how to make a positive impact in the community where we work and/or live, and put those ideas into action.

• Chino Valley Fire District Foundation – To promote life, safety, and welfare of the public through educational programs, direct assistance, and financial support of charitable organizations, victims of tragic events, and injured firefighters.

• Love Them All Foundation – To help children & adults with disabilities play organized sports and participate in social activities.

• Priceless Pets – To rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home unwanted and abandoned dogs and cats.

In Honor of Gary Christman

Here is Gary Christman at the first Southern California Charity Golf Classic. He delivered drinks and food to golfers during the tournament and planned to do the same this year. From the very beginning he was one of the biggest supporters of the tournament. In May, Gary passed away.

He was an excellent father, husband, friend, and community member who loved golf. He made great contributions to developing local junior golf and Ayala High School golf. We will always remember his kind heart and his smile which took over his whole face. Rest in peace.
