Bearskin Airlines Charity Golf Classics

Celebrating 10 Years in 2008, surpassing the $1,000,000 mark for regional charities!

In 1999, Bearskin Airlines hosted the first of a series of golf tournaments within the communities we serve. Since then, Thunder Bay, Sioux Lookout, Kenora, Dryden, Sault Ste Marie and Sudbury have all played host to one of our Bearskin Airlines Charity Golf Classics.

Although Bearskin Airlines is the principal organizer of these tournaments, we are unable to do it without the help of many local and regional companies as well as hundreds of golfers who take part each year! On behalf of everyone at Bearskin Airlines as well as the benefactors of the funds raised, we would like to acknowledge our primary sponsors who have been most consistent since 1999. Together, we have exceeded $1,005,500 for a variety of local charities and non-profit organizations!
