The largest owner-operator of golf courses, country
clubs and resorts in the U.S., BCG awarded prizes
that included a trip to the Nike Campus in Beaverton,
OR for custom club-fitting and other merchandise,
and tickets to the 2015 PGA Championship in Kohler,
WI.
Jeremiah Pulley played at Lincoln Hills Golf Club
(Lincoln, CA) and was among the many veterans who
addressed golfers:
"We have a saying within Wounded Warrior
Project; it's called living the (WWP "fireman's
carry") logo. Years ago, I was physically
carried off the battlefield in Iraq and I was the
warrior on top of the logo. Now, I get to be the
warrior on the bottom of the logo for my fellow
brothers and sisters ... because of your support, you,
too, are now living that logo."
The World's Largest Golf Outing is the brainchild of
BCG Chairman and CEO Peter Hill and is driven by
the company's 6,000 employees, business partners
and loyal golfers. BCG namesake, Masters and two-
time U.S. winner Billy Casper, served in the Navy,
saw first-hand the effects of front-line combat and
entertained U.S. troops in Asia by hitting golf balls
off aircraft carriers.
"Our nation's generosity and the growth of
the World's Largest Golf Outing are amazing,"
says Hill. "It's humbling to witness the
unwavering appreciation for our brave troops whose
sacrifices protect and preserve our daily
freedoms."
"We are deeply moved by the outpouring of
support from golfers and veterans alike," says
Adam Silva, Chief Development Officer of WWP.
"We salute Billy Casper Golf for its altruistic
culture and presenting this massive event with
tremendous precision and professionalism."
