This year we have taken over the Coal Creek and China Creek courses again! This was made possible due to the support of our partnerships from last year’s tournament. The Golf Club at Newcastle features courses framed by stunning, panoramic views of Lake Washington, Mt. Rainier, the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, and the Seattle skyline. No venue offers a more picturesque Pacific Northwest view.
The Bridges program is a grassroots organization developed by parents and local professionals to address the teen substance use crisis. Bridges harness the power of peer relationships in a sober environment to offer safe and developmentally supportive help to teens. Peer connection is forged in group sessions/recovery meetings, collaborative learning activities, recreational outings, and exploration of new or renewed hobbies! Each dollar raised for our tournament goes directly toward funding the current program and the expanding needs of teens in this program. Grants awarded by Best Starts for Kids, The Names Foundation, and others have helped us transform into a force for positive change in our community. BRIDGES IS ONE OF THE ONLY RESOURCES AVAILABLE to help our youth sustain a life of sobriety while allowing them to reimagine the possibilities of their future.
Help our youth in crisis by becoming a sponsor, donating, or participating in our tournament. Our goal for this annual Birdies for Bridges Golf Tournament is to bring Seattle and surrounding communities together in a fun and relaxed environment, create connections, and spread awareness of this amazing program while fundraising for our future – the future of OUR YOUTH!
