2018 Semper Fidelis Golf Classic Tournament

Special thanks to all who helped make the Foundation’s 32nd Annual Semper Fidelis Golf Classic a Huge Success!!

Whew, it was a hot one! Summer temperatures heated up the course along with our golfers!  First and foremost, we want to thank our special guest and Grand Marshall of the Tournament, General Alfred Gray.  It was a wonderful moment for our young Marine volunteers to meet him and listen to him speak.

A special thanks to our Corporate Members, Raytheon and Mr. Jeff Speitz,  Mr. Jimmy Dunne of Sandler-O’Neil & Partners, Kuka, Meggitt Training Systems and Mr. Steve Piccirilli, Lockheed Martin and General Conant for your continued support to the Foundation. Thanks to two long-time friends of the Foundation, Mrs. Sue Anne Weinburg and Mr. Larry Klipp for their unrestricted support to this year’s event.   And thanks to Dr. Susan Johnston and Col Dan Brannon for sponsoring foursomes again this year.  We are honored that you continue to join us and support the University.

The Marine Corps University Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that relies on tax deductible gifts, is the only Marine Corps charity solely dedicated to supporting the Professional Military Education (PME) of Officer and Enlisted Marines at the Marine Corps University and throughout the Operating Forces. Special events, such as the Semper Fidelis Golf Classic provide funding that supports Marine Leaders and their Professional Military Education worldwide.  The University leadership’s vision has been twofold – to prepare Marines at all levels to address complex security challenges in a rapidly transforming world through an unparalleled education in security and warfighting studies, and to groom the next generation of decision makers within the Marine Corps, government, and the private sector, equipping them with the critical thinking skills that will enable them to achieve success in any number of career paths. The Foundation relies on tax-exempt contributions from our Semper Fidelis Golf Classic, and those who support Marine Corps causes, including Corporate Members, Marine friends, former Marines helping Marines and donations in memory or in honor of someone special. We are grateful for your tax-deductible donation to support the Professional Military Education of active duty and reserve Marines. Semper Fi!
