The Tom Sullivan Blind Childrens Center Celebrity Golf Classic, held at the prestigious Riviera Country Club, was a huge success raising over $135,000 for the Center's children and families. A special thank you to all the auction donors. It was the best!

Kevin Griner of Harold Payne Plastics in Shawnee Mission, Kansas, is one of the tournament's biggest fans. "This event is just wonderful," says Kevin. "I cannot congratulate the staff and volunteers at the Blind Childrens Center enough for such an outstanding, smooth-running event. I play in about 10 to 15 charity tournaments every year and the Center's is best by far. I really look forward to it every year."

InfoUSA, the tournament's title sponsor, is the nation's largest sales leads and mailing list company. Other corporate sponsors included: Allergan Foundation, Lisa & Steve Hansen, and MetWest Securities, along with Gartner Inc., Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, Keyestone Interlocking Paving Contractors, King Wire Partitions, KTN Enterprises, Latham & Watkins, Mr. Neil McLean & Dr. Hilary Garland, RREEF, The Stein Family, Tetsu & Kathy Tanimoto and hole-in-one cars donor Beverly Hills BMW.

In-kind sponsors included: Agron, American Airlines, Jennifer Brown, Kristin & Steve Dark, KAS Engineering, Life Motivations, and Danica & Charles Perez.

Celebrities who joined Tom Sullivan in support of the children included Norm Crosby, Peter Falk, Steve Garvey, Joe Mantegna, Ron Masak, Dennis McNeil, Haley Joel Osment, and Kenny Rankin.

The day was filled with shots made, shots missed and, most of all, warm hearts. A special thank you to everyone involved in making the day a huge success!
