Press release from the Okanagan Celebrity Classic Golf Tournament on May 5, 2020:
The 5th annual Okanagan Celebrity Classic brought to you by Bellamy Homes is unfortunately postponed for 2020 due to the restrictions brought by COVID-19.
Patrick Sullivan, the Founder of the event, said Tuesday, “We are heartbroken to announce that the Okanagan Celebrity Classic golf tournament is unfortunately not going to proceed this year due to the current health crisis and current requirements for physical distancing in BC and at Predator Ridge. We are heartbroken and saddened by this announcement but at the same time know that it’s important that we go beyond the highest standards with our amazing event.”
The goal has always been quite simple. Provide a fun and exciting golf event, surrounded by the beauty of Predator Ridge and energy of local celebrity golfers, while raising funds and awareness for a local, family-focused charity organization. We want to support our amazing sponsors and contributors in the process, as well as give back the most we can, building off every year. And not being able to fulfill that goal in 2020 or the resulting donation to JoeAnna's House and our community is devastating to all of us.
The 5th Annual Okanagan Celebrity Classic has been rescheduled for July 13th & 14th, 2021 at Predator Ridge and is still accepting pledges of commitment and support for next year’s event.
“Thank you so much for your support and patience as we navigate these difficult times together.”, said Event Coordinator, Heather Sharpe of Sherpa Group Events. “We look forward to seeing you on the links or in the rinks again soon.”
