The Athabasca Tribal Council (ATC) announced the details for their first-ever Athabasca Tribal Council Golf Classic.
Partnering with the EventWorx Corporation, the tournament will also run alongside the annual Oil Sands Trade Show.
Also, Miskanaw Golf Course will be the site for the tournament.
Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation Chief Allan Adam said the event will raise funds for the Post-Secondary Student Support Program.
“These funds will provide needed financial support to ATC students. This will enable them to gain access to post-secondary education, and to graduate with skills needed to pursue their dreams and individual careers.”
Wes Scott, President and CEO of EventWorx, said the company looks forward to working with the ATC.
“This is an investment in community, and will provide much-needed scholarship funding to support Indigenous youth in earning their post-secondary education.”
Furthermore, Scott added the team will draw on 15 years of experience hosting the Oil Sands Charity Golf Classic.
