12th Annual Ridglea Veterans Classic

Every Veterans Day for the last 12 years Ridglea Country Club members have gathered to honor Ridglea Veterans and give back to the Veteran community they cherish. The Veterans Classic, a Ridglea Country Club Charitable Foundation event, is proud to have donated over $300,000.

The 12^th Annual Ridglea Veterans Classic Gala & Tournament values your interest in helping us to sponsor this fundraiser and our designated charity, the North Texas Warrior Golf Association (NTWGA), and with your help, we can continue this valuable tradition and critical mission.

The North Texas Warrior Golf Association helps transition combat wounded veterans back into civilian life. This is accomplished through golf and social integration. https://ntwga.org/

This NTWGA is more than a vehicle to help our warriors, it is lifesaving. In a world where Veteran suicide rates exceed 22 per day, since 2011 – the NTWGA has had ZERO suicides. Your donation helps to fund MISSION ZERO, the mental health function of the NTWGA, and keep this streak alive.

Over the years the NTWGA has provided:

120 Warriors
960 Golf Lessons
2500+ Rounds of Golf
120 Sets of Clubs
1000+ Hours Golf Course Time

“Based on my own personal experience, I can attest that if it wasn't for NTWGA, there would be several veterans, me included, no longer here." - Curtis Fowler, USMC, Iraq & Afghanistan, NTWGA

The 12th version of the event will include a Friday Night Gala & Dance with the hit band, Legacy 4, playing their hits during the live and silent auctions, a guest speaker, and the opportunity to engage with the esteemed warriors of the NTWGA. On Sunday, an 18-hole competitive scramble and pickleball tournament are open to all Ridglea members and their guests. Foursomes will be paired with a warrior so you can see them in action with your team!

Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly at RidgleaVeteransClassic@gmail.com.

Never Forget and Thank You!
