Moon Township, Pa. - The 20th
Annual Joe Walton Celebrity Spring Classic Golf Tournament will be held on
Monday, May 20, 2013 at Beaver Valley Golf Club in Beaver Falls, Pa. This
outing is held each year to help raise additional funds for the Colonial football
program. Revenue generated from the outing helps to cover the cost of
equipment, travel, educational and recruiting needs.
Please
save the date and plan to join the Colonial football family as this year's
event will be another exciting, fun-filled day. Registration fees and/or a
sponsorship includes all day food & beverage, greens fees with cart, goodie bag, skills games, a celebrity in each
foursome and the opportunity to support the RMU football team. The format of
the outing will be an 11:00 a.m. shotgun start scramble.
Last year's
celebrities included Randy Grossman, Pierre Larouche, Andy Russell, Kellen
Winslow, Sr., Gerry “Moon” Mullins, Phil Villapiano, Babe Parilli and Rocky
Bleier. Individual golfers are welcome on a space-available basis. Various
sponsorship packages are available. Non-golfers can still help by joining the
event for the clambake and dinner, or they can take advantage of new
merchandise sponsorships where sponsors will have exclusive opportunities to
have their company name or logo imprinted on tournament merchandise included in
the golfer goodie bags.
The
19th Annual Joe Walton Celebrity Spring Classic, held last May, raised more
than $67,000 for Robert Morris University football. It allowed the RMU football
program to purchase new video equipment, team apparel, gifts for senior
football players and sports nutrition supplements and assisted with team travel
and recruiting expenses. Without the generosity from friends and loyal
supporters of the RMU program, none of this would have been possible.

to seeing you on Monday, May 20!
