Hike Foundation - Celebrity Golf Classic Presented by Coca-Cola

The HIKE Foundation is looking forward to its Sixth Annual Celebrity Golf Classic - being held on June 9th at Rush Creek Golf Club. In 2007, we introduced a new celebrity format where throughout the event each Fivesome played one hole with each of Matt's celebrity guests in a "Pros versus Joes" format. Matt's 2008 team of Pros will include Minnesota Twins Legends Paul Molitor and Kent Hrbek, as well as Vikings All-Pro Guard Steve Hutchinson.

The "Pros versus Joes" format coupled with the "HIKE Pro Shop" featuring items from Nike, Adidas, Callaway and Riddell ensure that the HIKE Foundation Celebrity Golf Classic will remain one of the twin cities top golf events.

For a $3,000 tax deductible donation, you will receive one fivesome (4 player spots + 1 celebrity). Each member of your fivesome will receive the following:
  • 18 holes of golf with cart
  • Over $100 in Nike, Adidas and Riddell items from the "HIKE Pro Shop"
  • A $100 commemorative frame that contains a signed photo of Matt and a photo of your Fivesome
  • Participation in the Pre-event Luncheon
  • unlimited on-course food beverage from our friends at Coca-Cola, Chili's Grill & Bar, Matty B's and Maggiano's Little Italy
  • Post-event Awards Reception and
  • The Opportunity to bid on exclusive one-of-a-kind silent and live auction items


The Celebrity Golf Classic is the HIKE Foundation's largest fundraiser and with your support the HIKE Foundation will continue its mission of providing at-risk twin cities children with the Hope, Inspiration, Knowledge and Education they will need to make it through the key educational transition points between elementary, middle, high school and college. In order to accomplish our goals, we need you on our team!
