TELUS Golf Classic
Summer 2020
Thank you for supporting the Whistler Blackcomb Foundation’s 25th Annual TELUS Golf Classic charity fundraiser, and for helping us make it a big success despite this challenging year. Your support and involvement will help make a significant difference for many amazing charities
and community groups in the Sea to Sky Corridor.

The annual TELUS Golf Classic is recognized as one of Whistler’s best tournaments. This year will look a little bit different but we still plan on fundraising the much needed funds for the Sea to Sky Community!
With an abundance of caution, we have changed the format of the event to keep our guests safe and to follow new protocols. Guests will still be able to purchase foursomes but instead of a set date, they will be able to participate on any day between August 1st and the end of the season at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club.
As in many communities, our food banks, outreach and social services programs, domestic violence organizations and many others that we support have been overwhelmed with an exponential increase in people seeking help, and your participation in this event will help them continue this work. Thank you so much in advance for your participation and support!
Location: Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club
Cost: $1,800 per foursome
Includes: 4 players, green fees and cart, warm-up range balls, lunch or dinner, refreshments on cart, Longest Drive and KP contests with prizing*, virtual ongoing leaderboard to track scores, 4 passes to Vallea Lumina, and a replay rate offered at $50/person including cart for same-day play. Prizing provided for winning teams.
Virtual Experiences on Friday, September 11th:
-
4th Annual Heli Ball Drop presented by Blackcomb Helicopters
The Drop took place from a helicopter 25’ above the Practice Facility at the Fairmont Chateau Golf Club. 3000 balls were purchased and 6 landed in the hole! One lucky winner was drawn from a hat and they took home a 2020/21 WB Season Pass AND a Blackcomb Helicopter Experience for 4. -
Virtual Hairfarmers Concert Atop the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Hotel brought to You by Samsung
Viewers tuned in virtually from the comfort of their own home, and 16 dinner guests joined us in-person after purchasing tables via an online auction ahead of time. It was a memorable evening of amazing music, a breathtaking backdrop, and wonderful support from around the globe including Quebec, Tahoe, Australia and many more! We were able to fundraise an additional $15,000 in cash donations during the show, which TELUS so generously matched. -
Online Auction Brought to You by Pepsico
Our online auction closed on Friday, September 11th. With over 170 items to bid on, we raised over $40,000. The auction plays a major role in our fundraising efforts and we are so grateful to all of the businesses who donated despite the difficult year, and to the auction bidders who took home some incredible items!
