Athletes First Gala and Classic

Saturday-Sunday March 7 & 8, 2009 ~ Honoring John Lynch and PIMCO CEO Bill Thompsonlynch2

Beautiful and spacious Casa de Golf property in Costa Rica has been donated to this event. See Casa de Golf blog for more details.

Athlete representation firm Athletes First, Orangewood’s PALS auxiliary and event co-chairs Jeff and Stephanie Gehl and Shannon Tarnutzer invite you to be a part of this exciting event. You will join numerous NFL stars, celebrities, media personalities and community leaders at this one-of-a-kind event to benefit Orangewood Children.

The Annual Athletes First Classic is the company’s signature event and raises money for Orangewood, a home for abused and disadvantaged children. Held in March of each year, Athletes First Classic brings together the company’s clients for a two-day extravaganza at the luxurious St. Regis Resort in Dana Point, CA. The dinner program and phenomenal silent and live auctions along with a unique golf tournament the following day make this a “can’t miss” weekend for our clients.

In past years, the Classic has been covered nationally by ESPN and NFL network and honored luminaries Pat Tillman, Peter Ueberroth, Steve Young, Drew Bledsoe and more. To date, the Athletes First Classic has raised over $700,000 for the kids of Orange County.
