2014 Sponsorship Opportunities
A message from the 2014 Tournament Chair
In its more than two decades, United Way
of Winnipeg’s annual golf tournament has
established itself as one of the premier
fundraising golf tournaments in Winnipeg. Each
year it attracts 152 players, 38 teams and many
sponsors. And for good reason.
United Way is a Winnipeg institution which,
through events like the golf tournament, offers
people from every sector an opportunity to
work together to support so many agencies and
so much good work in our community. Also it’s
just a great day of golf that gives participants a
chance to connect with other business leaders.
This year’s tournament will take place on
August 6, 2014 at Pine Ridge Golf Club.
As the new chair of the tournament, I’m
looking forward to engaging even more members of the business community and
enabling even more positive change for Winnipeg.
Within the pages of this book I hope you’ll find your way to connect and
network, to enhance your profile and brand, and to showcase your commitment
to that generous cooperative spirit that Winnipeg is famous for.
See you on the links!
Sincerely,
Tim Prokipchuk
Director of Business Sales
