Join our wounded Veterans for an unforgettable day of golf at one of the world’s most highly rated courses. Using solo riders or special golf clubs, our wounded heroes in attendance join foursomes and demonstrate incredible determination and strength as they play the game with you. Designed by Tom Fazio, The Resort at Pelican Hill’s stunning courses are surrounded by deep ocean views, open canyons and elevated plateaus with a palette of a hundred colors contrasting the distinct edges of the fairways and greens.

9:30AM - Shotgun Start

Format: Foursome scramble. The best shot is selected after each shot and all four players will play their next shots from there until their ball is in the hole.

When golf concludes, join us for an extraordinary evening. While enjoying a plated dinner at one of the Resort at Pelican Hill’s premier ballrooms, guests will witness first-hand the stories of Veteran speakers and their caregivers as they share the reality of coping with life after injury and the daily struggles they face.

Overlooking the ocean, start the evening with cocktails on the Pacific Terrace and later bid on unique auction packages not available anywhere else as we come together to raise funds and awareness to support our catastrophically wounded Heroes.
