Dear CvC Friends,
It’s that time of the year. Please mark your calendars as the 16th Annual Coaches vs. Cancer Las Vegas Golf Classic presented by Sanford Health will return:
Sunday-Tuesday, May 14-16, 2023
Because of coaches across the nation and their amazing friends, we’ve raised nearly $12 million to benefit the American Cancer Society since the inception of the event.
A few important notes:
-
Shadow Creek, Southern Highlands and Cascata will once again host the golf during the 2023 Las Vegas Classic. They are terrific partners and offer first-class courses. And new this year, TPC Summerlin - part of the PGA TOUR’s acclaimed TPC Network - is joining the team.
-
Sanford Health’s commitment to this event - and to Coaches vs. Cancer nationally - is inspiring. We cannot thank Bill Gassen and his team enough for their passion in the fight cancer.
-
MGM Resorts International’s impact on sports continues to grow evidenced by the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament debuting in Las Vegas next month. We are proud of our longtime relationship with MGM Resorts. They are a tremendous partner of Coaches vs. Cancer throughout the year.
-
Park MGM will once again host golfers and our Sunday night party.
- This is Mother’s Day Weekend, so plan accordingly. With shopping, pools and spas, Vegas is a perfect spot for non-golfers.
- More news is expected soon about a special entertainment experience for Monday night.
-
As many of you are aware, golf foursomes will increase to $20,000 this year. This is our first increase in six years. We appreciate you understanding the need to increase the price to cover rising costs and protect the donation made to the American Cancer Society. A waiting list is being built as demand is high. Contact me at lonkruger12@gmail.com or (405) 401-8326 to reserve your foursome.
-
NextGen Cattle Co., Nike, Top of the World, Comprehensive Cancer Centers, The UPS Store, Wald Family Foods and Xs & Os of Success are all back as supporters of the event. Contact Bridget Byrne at bridget.byrne@xsosofsuccess.com for sponsorship information.
We’re excited to see many familiar faces in Las Vegas this May as well as some new ones. Again, thank you for all you do to help end cancer as we know it.
Until then - enjoy the games on the court!
Lon Kruger
Coaches vs. Cancer Council, Chair
