The NABA-AZ 3rd Annual Golf Tournament will be held at the Whirlwind Golf Course at the Gila River Indian Community. It is a spectacular course and our rate of $150.00 per golfer ($560 for a foursome) is an excellent value. For those of you who did not participate in last year’s tournament, we had a great turnout and it was an exciting event. NABA-AZ plans on using profits from the tournament to provide Native American law students with scholarships and on community outreach matters.

The sponsorship levels are listed on the flyer and the sponsorship packages sheet. Sponsorships range from $200 for a hole sponsorship up to $5,000 for a title sponsor. Sponsorship at the golf tournament provides your firm/organization with recognition at the tournament. If you are interested in more details regarding the different levels of sponsorship, please contact Steve Heeley or Sheri Freemont (Steven Heeley Phone: (202) 403-4102 or E-mail: sheeley@akingump.com or Sheri Freemont Phone: (480) 362-5412)

Members can also assist by helping to solicit items for the raffle. If interested in donating to the raffle, please contact April Olson at April.Olson@gric.nsn.us. This event will only be successful with the assistance of our membership – that’s why I am asking you to please consider asking your employer to purchase a foursome or a hole sponsorship. In addition, please forward the flyer to everyone you know that would be interested. This event is a great networking/client development opportunity. Last year, many of our participants were tribal leaders, tribal attorneys and those working in tribal communities.

The sponsorship deadline is March 1, 2010. We hope that you can participate in this year’s tournament!Special thanks to the NABA-AZ Golf Committee for all of their hard work in planning the NABA-AZ golf tournament!
