Tee up at the 1st Annual Golf Fore Hope Tournament, presented by MTT Homes, on Sunday, August 16, at Tapps Island Golf Course in Lake Tapps. Spend a day enjoying fun, friendly competition on the course, bidding on exciting silent auction items, and kicking back with a relaxing brunch—all to raise vital funds for the Cancer Center at Valley Medical Center.
Golf Fore Hope was born from the vision of three longtime friends who wanted to give back. When Robbin Ott, a Valley patient, experienced compassionate, life-changing care at Valley Medical Center’s Cancer Center, she knew she wanted to turn her gratitude into action. Teaming up with her friends Bonnie Buffington and Carol Pope, they created this first tournament with the hope that it will be the first of many.
