Broadmead Care's Charity Golf Tournament - supporting Veterans Memorial Lodge
Since 2003, more than $2 million has been raised through this tournament to fund essential projects that help transform Veterans Memorial Lodge into a place that feels like home. In 2025, we are committed to completing the fundraising needed to renovate and revitalize courtyards and gardens at Veterans Memorial Lodge.
In this episode I speak with Gary Garnett (Team Navy) and Chuck Oliviero (Team Army/Airforce) about the Armed Forces Challenge portion of this tournament. The fundraising this friendly challenge generates is fantastic. Last year (2024) the Armed Forces Challenge raised over $40,000 and the tournament raised $200,000 in support of the Veterans Memorial Lodge.
Thursday June 5th is this year’s tournament and anyone wanting to make a donation is encouraged to visit the following link:
