“Your Business is Our Business”

On Friday, June 26, the Crescenta Valley Chamber of Commerce will host its annual scholarship golf tournament at Scholl Canyon Golf Course. The event includes golf (with cart), trophies, prizes and a delicious lunch.

Our sponsors, who lend their names and financial support each year, are largely responsible for the tremendous success of this worthwhile program. Each year we are able to provide grants to several deserving graduating high school students in our community. These grants are made possible by the generous support of community leaders. We recently informed the five graduating seniors of their sponsorships. They will be honored at the tournament itself on June 26.

Please consider sponsoring this event. By participating as a sponsor, your organization will benefit from extensive advertising via media campaigns and promotional materials. For a small donation, you will enjoy excellent exposure in addition to knowing that your sponsorship fee will be used to help students in continuing their education.

We have several levels of sponsorship packages. You can select the level of participation that best meets your needs. Your company name will be included in our program and recognized at the event. Advertise your company name on a tee sign for $150, be a beverage sponsor for $500, a goodie bag sponsor is $1,000 or a lunch sponsor is $1,500. If you choose to be our title sponsor ($3,000), you’ll receive maximum exposure for your business as well as free tournament entry for eight players.

The deadline to become a sponsor and be included in all our promotional materials is May 29, so call the office today at (818) 248-4957.

Whether or not you sponsor the event, if you’re a golfer the CV Chamber golf tournament at Scholl Canyon is the place to be on June 26! There are three opportunities to win a prize in the hole-in-one contests. You might just go home with a new Toyota Prius courtesy of Bob Smith Toyota, a three-day cruise from Montrose Travel or $10,000 thanks to State Farm Agent Chris Aristo. Your entry fee of $125 ($135 the day of the event) gets you 18-holes of golf, a two-person cart, a bucket of range balls, a goodie bag, refreshments on the course, plus a continental breakfast and a delicious lunch of freshly grilled steak and salmon. Available for purchase at the event will be a putting contest, mulligans, raffle tickets and a closest to pin contest.

This event is limited to the first 72 golfers that sign up so get your registration form in soon! Visit the Chamber website at www.crescentavalleychamber.org to sign up.

Finally, a big thank you to all who participated in this year’s Smart-a-Thon. We raised over $6,500 to help local educational organizations. The competition was tough for the trivia test but J’s Maintenance in La Crescenta won first place! The winners of the $500 drawings were the La Crescenta Woman’s Club, Glendale Healthy Kids, and GUSD. The top guesser on the pot o’ gold was Sheriff’s Department Deputy Jesse Alcala. The charity he selected to donate the money to was the Fire House Teen Center.  Most importantly, fun was had by all!
