Thank you for joining us for the 34th annual St. Jude Chicago Golf Classic presented by Parlor Pizza Bar at Olympia Fields Country Club for a day where golf meets purpose. The St. Jude Chicago Golf Classic is more than a tournament—it’s a chance to make a difference for children fighting cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Every swing, every putt, every moment on the course helps St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital continue its lifesaving mission: Finding cures. Saving children®.

Olympia Fields offers an extraordinary experience for golfers. Its championship North Course stretches over 7,200 yards and has hosted major tournaments, challenging players with pristine fairways and world-class greens. It’s a course that inspires greatness—and now, your game can inspire hope.

Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food—because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Your participation ensures that St. Jude can keep pushing the boundaries of research and care, so every child has a chance at tomorrow.

For information on becoming a sponsor or securing your foursome for next year's event, please contact Jennifer Herrera at Jennifer.Herrera@alsac.stjude.org.
