Patriots Point Links on Charleston Harbor is excited to announce the selection of Bert’s Big Adventure as the beneficiary for the 5th Annual Mount Pleasant Charity Open. The charity tournament will take place Friday, August 4 through Sunday, August 6.

Bert’s Big Adventure (www.bertsbigadventure.org) is dedicated to providing a magical all-expenses-paid, five-day journey to Walt Disney World for children with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families. Bert’s Big Adventure prides itself on creating programs and fostering a community that goes beyond the five-day trip. Following the annual trip to Walt Disney World, the organization provides year-round support through initiatives such as the Reunion Adventures, the Fairy Godparent volunteer program and additional charitable services. Bert’s Big Adventure was co-founded by Bert Weiss of the popular Charleston-area morning show, The Bert Show on 95SX.

In the past four years, the Pro/Am has raised more than $15,000 for area cancer patients and the American Cancer Society.

“This tournament was founded to support the Charleston community and we are excited to see magic being made on behalf of Bert’s Big Adventure in 2017,” said Brad Parker, PGA, General Manager of Patriots Point. “It is an honor to work with such a fantastic and beloved organization.”

The cost to participate is $220 per player for the competition, with cart, greens fees, food and beverages included. Each participant will also receive a player’s tee gift. Both professionals and amateurs can register by calling 843-881-0042 or emailing General Manager Brad Parker: bparker@patriotspointlinks.com. In addition to the funds raised to assist cancer patients, the tournament has offered more than $15,000 in prizes to players.

Various sponsorship levels are available for corporate supporters. Sponsorship incentives vary per level; however, each sponsorship will include an email to the Patriots Point customer database of more than 15,000 people as well as social media mentions.
