2011 Drive for the Podium a Huge Success!

Thanks to everyone who took part in the 2011 Mark Lowry Drive for the Podium Golf Tournament held on June 20th at Stonebridge Golf and Country Club.

The weather was gorgeous and the 150+ attending had a great day. Your generosity was exceptional and we raised $21,000 this year, not easy in these challenging financial times. The proceeds of this tournament are used to assist current and aspiring Olympic athletes and coaches. Over the past six years that the tournament has been held over $150,000 has been raised.

We were honoured to have former Olympians Alex Baumann (swimming), Sue Holloway (cross country skiing, canoe/kayak), Alison Korn (rowing), Ole Sorensen (wrestling) and Scott Cranham (diving) take part in the day.

Emcee Scott Russell of CBC Sports did his usual wonderful job at keeping the evening program rolling and the Lowry family truly appreciates his continued support of the tournament.

Auctioneer Kent Browne also provided his services and helped raise a significant amount through the live auction.

Thanks go to our many sponsors (see below) and auction prize donors for their generosity as well. Without them this event would not be near the success that it is.
