Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids

The Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids, in support of the Children's Hospital Foundation, is one of the most anticipated events to hit Winnipeg in 2010. The two-day fundraiser on June 6 and 7, 2010 at the St. Charles Country Club promises to be an extraordinary experience.

"I am excited to be headed to Winnipeg for the 2010 Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids," said Mike Weir.  "In just three years this national initiative has generated approximately $2 million for children's health care in Canada.  Very few national initiatives have had this level of impact in such a brief period of time."

"I know Winnipeg and the surrounding community will rally behind this event and prove there is an even greater potential to change the landscape of support for children's health care," said Weir.  "I am proud to be able to participate in making a difference in the lives of children in Manitoba"  

"We are so excited to have Mike Weir Miracle Golf Drive for Kids in Winnipeg to support sick children and their families in our region," said Andrew McPherson, Chair, Board of Directors of the Children's Hospital Foundation. "It's going to be a huge event for our city, and will greatly benefit child health care and research in Manitoba."

This unique opportunity will include a golf tournament, a golf clinic, a sponsor reception, a junior pro-am event, and concludes with a Gala dinner at The Fort Garry Hotel Spa and Conference Centre.

Approximately 100 volunteers are required to manage the event, if you are interested in getting involved contact the Children's Hospital Foundation.
