The purpose of this charitable event is to raise social awareness, empower community involvement, and most importantly increase monetary funding for Georgia’s homeless veterans. This cause is worthy because While most homeless veterans are single unaffiliated men, most housing money in existing federal homelessness programs, in contrast, is devoted to helping homeless families or homeless women with dependent children.

This is event will be held at the Lake Spivey Golf Club, one of metro Atlanta’s premiere golf courses located at 8255 Clubhouse Way Jonesboro, GA 30236. The tournament will begin with a color guard unit’s salute to our country’s flag followed by what is expected to be a great day of golf. During this amazing charity event we encourage the metro Atlanta community to support and help make a difference in the lives of those that help protect our country.

Since 1991, over 200 families with over 500 children have sucessfully completed our program. We encourage you to learn more about our work and how you can get involved. We cordially invite you to join us at our 16th Annual Golf Classic!

Situated on 1,200 acres of breathtaking countryside within the gated community of Sugarloaf Country Club, TPC Sugarloaf offers 27 holes of magnificent golf designed by Greg Norman. The course features corridors of undulating Bermuda fairways thread through stately stands of towering oak, pine and maple trees, with numerous streams, lakes and hills adding to the course’s spectacular beauty and strategic diversity.

The format will be four-player team scramble. Teams will be accepted by entry form or made up from individual entries based upon handicaps. With a shot-gun start at noon, you’ll have 4-1/2 hours to enjoy the beauty and challenge of TPC Sugarloaf. At the end of the day we’ll enjoy fun and fellowship over a fantastic dinner. The awards ceremony is always full of laughter as everyone celebrates the day’s successes and competes to win great raffle prizes.

There are so many devastating diseases in our world right now, and that saddens us. The difference with Type 1 (Juvenile) Diabetes is that wiping it out of existences is extremely attainable and yet reachable. I hope one day I will be able to tell him to put down the glucose machine, its no longer needed. We believe that by time he reaches High School with the help of others our hope will come to reality.

The Rockin’ Peeps are your average diabetes families. Formed from a community of children who have been living with diabetes. We know that insulin is not our cure and only life support, so on November 13, 2010, The Rockin’ Peeps are hosting a “Tee off “fore” a CURE” day at Canongate Summergrove Golf Course. All proceeds will benefit the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation). You and others can help too with donations big and small. We are asking for sponsors, players, or just simple donations. With a positive outcome we can all make a difference. As parents, its our instinct from the moment our children are born to protect them from any harm. My only way now is to help find a cure.

Please help us, help all the kids and adults living with Type 1 Diabetes. Together we can make a difference.

Check-In begins at 8 am, with shotgun start at 9 am. Mulligan & Raffle Ticket packages will be available for purchase when you check in.

The cost for this event is $125.00. This price includes 18 holes of golf, riding cart, BBQ lunch and various awards and door prizes.

Funds raised from this event will help offset medical costs for Kirk Franz who was diagnosed with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and bile duct cancer in September 2009.
