Michelle Wiesmann, Mike Mcguire, Janet Gores and Joyce Cutler at the Courage 4 Life Golf Tournament

The 6^th Annual Courage 4 Life Golf Tournament and Auction was held on a beautiful August afternoon at Trilogy Golf Club in Redmond, Washington. Golfers were challenged with various contest holes supported by sponsors, including: Attenex, US Bank, SRI, Merrill Lynch, Neighbors Family, Orange Julius, Outback Steakhouse, Sonus Pharmaceuticals and Unisea. The Marsha Rivkin Center is very appreciative of the Hole in One Sponsors. Golfers competed for a chance to win a Ford Mustang or Ford Five Hundred from Harris Ford and featured a three carat diamond ring from Marci Jewelry!

After the tournament, golfers and guests attended a dinner, which included a silent and live auction. All the guests enjoyed a barbequed dinner generously donated by Outback Steakhouse. The silent and live auction featured luxurious items such as a $1,000 gift certificate to University Village, six bottle vertical of Leonetti Wines, diamond stud earrings from Marci Jewelry, and a holiday shopping trip for two to New York. This fun event raised an impressive $50,000 for the Marsha Rivkin Center.

The Courage 4 Life Golf Tournament & Auction was created by Marsha Rivkin Center Board President Joe White and is designed to help support and raise awareness for the Marsha Rivkin Center in memory of Lori White (Mr. White's wife) and Mary Ellen Bissell (Mr. White's mother). The event was created in 2002 with over $400,000 raised so far.

The Marsha Rivkin Center thanks everyone who participated and supported this event.
