“Cancer is a difficult diagnosis, and most of us have known someone or had family members who have been impacted by cancer. As cancer treatments and therapies continue to improve, patients are now living longer with a better quality of life. During cancer treatment, patients encounter a torrent of physical, emotional and financial difficulties. Additionally, they may lose their ability to work temporarily, which adds another dimension of stress into their family lives.” Sanaya Sturm, BSN, AMB-BC Nurse Manager
This will be an outstanding golf tournament that you are guaranteed to enjoy, and more importantly will be proud to attend. There will be ample and convenient parking for the 110 players. Golfers will receive thank you gift bags containing items that businesses in town provided and items logoed with our brand name “Alpine Insurance Brokers” such as high-end golf balls, shirts, etc. Follow the tunnel of banners that contain the logos of the many Steamboat businesses donating. It will lead to the practice greens, chipping green, and the fantastic driving range at Haymaker. This will be a professional style tournament so there won’t be things like mulligans to purchase, and you will enjoy the fact that you won’t be asked for additional donations while being welcomed to the tournament or during play. We will be providing lunch, open bar (yes, mixed drinks, but no shots), expect to win a side by side/four-wheeler from Extreme Powersports if you get a hole in one on the 17th green. There will be strict player rules because the winners will also enjoy prizes and recognition for their outstanding play. The tournament will be a shamble (every player moves their ball up to the longest drive…the rest of the time you play your own ball). Do your best to speed up play. We will give you a sleeve of golf balls so you don’t have to search for the balls that are highly unlikely to find. If you get caught holding up play you will be asked to waterfall your beers and get moving. On a more serious note, enjoy yourselves and take the time you need to hit a ball because we are hoping for a 5 hour window to play the 18 holes, and last year this time limit was more than enough thanks to the courtesy of all that played.
Generous donors will be honored as hole sponsors, by cart decorations if they wish, and any other request if reasonable. At the end of the tournament those who had fun should stick around for the live band (Eric Delaney & Friends). Following that we will pick up the tab for food, fun, and drinks out on Rex’s back patio.
Alpine Insurance Broker’s appreciation will not stop at the end of the day. The community will be reminded of your generosity throughout the year. We will post two full page ads in the Steamboat Pilot Newspaper listing all the businesses that donated. One of the ads will run a few months after the tournament and the second will run the following year. When Alpine Insurance Brokers reminds the community of your kindness, we also generate awareness that a cancer center exists in Steamboat.
In the last three years alone, Susie Jones, lost her father to cancer, Paxton lost his cousin and aunt to cancer, and this past winter Paxton nearly lost another aunt to cancer. This in itself was a dreadful experience for the benefactors of this tournament, but in addition to that Alpine Insurance Brokers has trusting relationships with each of their clients. When these clients that we rely on most pass away, it brings us all to tears. Cancer must be stopped in its tracks. It is not acceptable to watch the catastrophes continue. It is time to find influential ways to motivate the residents of Steamboat Springs to find the generous person that lives inside all of us, and make a real difference for those suffering from cancer in our beloved town.
