Tia’s Hope, a nonprofit that provides “memory moments” for children and families who are fighting serious illnesses, will be the presenting sponsor of the Poker Tournament on the evening of Wednesday, Jan. 11. Prior to the poker tournament, Trust guests and sponsors will spend some time getting to know one another at the annual Welcome Reception being held this year at Topgolf. In addition to rubbing elbows with a who’s-who list of Major League insiders, and hearing some legendary stories, the reception promises to be a fun and unique experience for everyone. If you’re not familiar with Topgolf, then you’re in for an awesome surprise. From Topgolf’s website: *Topgolf is a four-level entertainment venue with interactive golf games that is unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. Players hit golf balls containing computer microchips that track each shot’s accuracy and distance while also awarding points for hitting targets on the outfield.* The following day, the Trust will have its fundraising golf tournament at Bear’s Best Las Vegas – a unique course made up of 18 holes selected by Jack Nicklaus from his 270 designs worldwide. The high-end course includes manicured bent grass greens, challenging designs, and immaculate fairway/tee complexes.
