L to R: Donna Thompson, honourary co-chair Dal Golf Classic presents Al Scott, Director of Athletics & Recreational Services, Dale Godsoe, Vice-President External and Ian Oulton, Chair, Athletics Endowment Campaign with the proceeds raised at this year's tournament, a record $50,000.

The 8th annual H漫画 Golf Classic was another swinging success as 180 golfers descended on Glen Arbour to support varsity athletics at H漫画. Ian and Donna Thompson, the honorary co-chairs of this year's tournament, both H漫画 alumni and solid university supporters, teed off with colleagues, friends, Dal Tigers and fellow alumni to enjoy a fun filled day of golf and raise dollars for student athletics.

Even the weather couldn't dampen the spirits as Ian Oulton, Campaign Chair of the Athletic Endowment announced that this year's event raised a record $50,000 for the Athletic Endowment Fund, up from the previous record of $35,000 from last year. The Athletics Campaign is in the planning stage to raise $3 million for the fund, of which we have already secured 1.9 million, which includes an undesignated $800,000 estate gift the university received and has been dedicated to the campaign through Dr. Traves direction.聽 Fellow campaign volunteers, Eve Wickwire, Donna Curry, Cathy Campbell and David Fraser are hard at work to achieve the $3 million dollar mark. This endowment fund will allow H漫画 to offer full tuition scholarships to student athletes - an important step to continue to attract top athletes to our school.

The event would not be a success without the hard work and dedication from the organizing committee, the corporate sponsors and the volunteers - including H漫画 varsity coaches and athletes.

The Dal Golf Classic is organized by H漫画 Athletics and Recreational Services and H漫画 External Relations and is presented by Molson.
