Golf tournament benefits ROCK Missions, Blenheim Youth Centre

The CK Charity Classic golf tournament held earlier this month has raised over $21,000 for two Chatham-Kent causes.

The second-annual event at Willow Ridge Golf & Country Club drew 144 golfers to the links on Aug. 6, a news release said. The event was presented by JMHI Insurance Group in partnership with the Business Social Network.

The Blenheim Youth Center received $11,810 to renovate and improve its outside yard and purchase new computers for center participants.

ROCK Missions will use the $10,000 it received to expand its outreach services to Blenheim and Ridgetown to help those in need.

The CK Charity Classic is a non-profit founded by Adam and Erin Dickinson and Eric Koscielski. All proceeds raised by the event are used to support various causes and programs around Chatham-Kent.

Applicants for next year’s tournament recipients are available by contacting the Charity Classic at [email protected].
