PNBC 2026 Charity Golf Tournament Announcement

Dear members,

Happy new year to all of you! We hope you are fresh and rested. Now that 2025 is in the rearview mirror, it is time for us to put our running shoes on and get ready for the long race called 2026!

The first thing we need to mobilize for will be our charity golf tournament. At our Xmas luncheon, we all heard what a meaningful difference we made last year. There is every reason for us to repeat this. And we shall.

We have shared this before, and we share it again: Every peso in surplus from this event will go directly to our two charities. They make good use of the money.

So let us mobilize, let us spread the word and let us fill up the flights with people keen to play golf and make a positive difference.

Date:
30 January 2026 (Friday)

Venue:
Hallow Ridge, San Pedro, Laguna

Tournament Fee:
Php5,500 (includes green fee, cart-sharing, tokens, breakfast, lunch and raffle ticket)

Time:
Registration and breakfast (05:30AM)
Ceremonial tee-off (06:45AM)
Shotgun (07:00AM)

Note that sign-ups are binding as we order shirts, food, caddies, etc., based on sign-ups. If you don’t play, you still pay.

We are also inviting sponsors. To date we have sponsorships from Odfjell Technology and Solvang. More are welcome – it is an excellent opportunity to show yourself to a group of people in a good mood. Feedback from last year’s sponsors was very good.

Some of you might even enjoy seeing me do something I truly suck at, as I will not be able to avoid the ceremonial tee-off Last year I feel I should have gotten an award for shortest tee-off!

Let’s get these street kids some help!

Best wishes,
Carl M.
