The Raven’s fourth annual ‘Par-Tay on the Fairway’ at Saratoga Beach Golf Club was a complete sellout on Friday, and this amazing community helped us raise more than $10,000 for MARS Wildlife Rescue.

Our presenting sponsor, GFL Environmental, also contributed an incredible $10,000 cheque, bringing the final total to nearly $21,000.

GFL Environmental presented this year’s event and making such a game-changing donation.

We are also incredibly grateful to our Platinum Sponsors, Comox Valley Airport and Foxy Box Laser & Wax Bar - Courtenay & Campbell River, for going above and beyond to support the tournament.

Thank you to Fountain Tire and Kelly and Carlos O'Bryan's in Courtenay for running the barbecue, as well as Quality Foods Courtenay for donating all the food and drinks for our golfers and volunteers.
