2018 Tournament w/ the “Amazing Golf Ball Whacker Guy”

2018 Tournament
We are blown away with the ongoing support of this tournament over the years. We set another record-breaking year, raising over $42,000!  Many teams enjoyed the help of professional long driver, Bobby Bradley (or the “Amazing Golf Ball Whacker Guy”) of Charity Golf International. Congrats to the Collins & Hermann Team as they took away the 1st place Championship Belts.

2017 Golf Tournament, 5th year and the best one yet…

2017 Tournament
Can’t believe this was our 5th year putting on this tournament! On August 12th, 2017 our Annual ‘For Pete’s Sake’ Golf Tournament took place and was the best one yet. The tournament raised over $40,000 and brought many friends and family together once again to celebrate the life of Pete.

To no surprise, the championship belts were awarded to Brian Kane, Chris Mabry, Ryne Fischer, and Rich Pendergast of Ryan Lawn and Tree. Thanks to all those who came out, we couldn’t do it without you!

‘The Clevinger-Cobb Memorial Cup’

Peter’s high school soccer coaches at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Overland Park were looking for a way to honor two fallen teammates: Peter, class of 2006, and Aaron Cobb, Class of 2009. They settled on ‘The Clevinger-Cobb Memorial Cup’ to go to the winner of STA Men’s Soccer vs. archrival, St. James Academy. The trophy, pictured below, is a traveling trophy residing at the winner’s school until next year’s match. The Clevinger family looks forward to making the trophy presentation each year.

2016 Golf Tournament, with a special guest

2016 Tournament
The 4th Annual For Pete’s Sake Golf Tournament took place August 13th, 2016. With the continued support and help from our family, friends, and supporters we raised over $30,000 for the Peter L. Clevinger Legacy Foundation!

Highlights of the day included a visit from Benedictine College’s own, Rocky the Raven, who was eager to entertain and take pictures with the golfers. Each golfer also left with a complementary Nike golfer hat with the foundation logo. The 2016 Championship Belts went to Curt Marshand, Brian Kane, Chris Mabry, and Ryne Fisher, making them winners of three of the past four tournaments. Thanks to all who helped out for another memorable and fun filled day!

2015 Golf Tournament: Another Beautiful Day

2015 Tournament
Our 3rd Annual For Pete’s Sake Golf Tournament took place on another beautiful day in August. We continue to build on our success from the prior years. This year’s tournament raised over $35,000 for the Peter L. Clevinger Legacy Foundation. Thank you to all our sponsors, participants, volunteers, and supporters for all your help! We couldn’t do it without you!

Out of the 40 teams, the Austin Wealth Strategies team consisting of Rick Austin, Mike Sobba, Tim Barry and Matt Barry took home the championship belts. Although they won’t admit to it, the Mallard Duck painting (last place award) went to Adam Love, Kyle Kremers, Tyler Shepherd, and Mitch Mattix. This was also the first year we had an official after party at The Well in Waldo, which was a lot of fun for those able to keep going after a long and fun day on the golf course.
