On August 13, the Calgary Chamber hosted our annual Chamber Charity Classic at the Bearspaw Golf Club, with proceeds going to support Wood's Homes, a local mental health organization that supports and treats children, young people, adults and families.

Golfers enjoyed a fantastic day on the lush greens of the Bearspaw Golf Course, taking in the stunning scenery. The tournament provided a chance to network in a fun and relaxed atmosphere among other members of the business community. Each hole featured unique sponsor activations, from chipping challenges and beverage tastings to exciting prize opportunities and memorable photo moments with Allen the Alpaca. After the tournament, participants enjoyed a reception dinner and participated in a silent auction, with items generously donated by Calgary Chamber members and the broader business community.

The Chamber Charity Classic would not have been possible without the support of our members, donations made to the silent auction and the generosity of our sponsors:

• Cart sponsor: Alberta Blue Cross
• Ball sponsor: The Calgary Airport Authority
• Hole sponsors: Aspen Films, BrokerLink, Calgary Co-op, Moby, Payworks, SaskTel, Sentinel Storage, TalentED YYC and WBM
• Prize sponsor: ARC Financial
• Print sponsor: Print Three
• Supporting sponsors: BOOM Group, Calgary Sports and Entertainment and Grant Thornton

Founded as an orphanage by Reverend George Wood in 1914, Wood's Homes is a place of caring and trust. A place you can turn to for help when you don’t know what else to do, or when you have nowhere else to turn.

Their 500 staff and 100 volunteers provide 40+ programs and services for 20,000 children and their families every year.
