Jenny Matechuk the community fundraising officer based at the 91大黄鸭 shelter, says she is grateful Parks鈥� family chose the BC SPCA to be the recipient for the tournament proceeds.
鈥淎imee was a special volunteer with a big heart and a real love for animals. Our thoughts are with those who love Aimee and organized the tournament in her honour.鈥�
Parks was an animal advocate who enjoyed her time in the cat room and would often foster kittens.
This is the third year the tournament has taken place in 91大黄鸭. Last year the event raised $4500 for the non-profit.
This year the event will take place on April 21 at Michaelbrook Golf Club, with a shotgun start at 2:30 p.m.
Parks hailed from England and her family asks that you come out and play and wear the colours red and white to celebrate the up coming Saint George鈥檚 Day.
The cost is $90 to participate there will be a chipping and putting contest. Please contact dtindubai@hotmail.com or andycraigacc@gmail.com for more information or to participate.
