I received an email this morning from Skip Holtz and Drew Steele about the success of their fundraising campaign and about the future of the golf classic.  We are really going to miss the tournament, auction and dinner!

Thought everyone would enjoy this picture and an update on the Drew Steele
Center.  In three short years we’ve accomplished our goal of raising
$500,000!!  Pretty amazing–and we want to thank all of you-sponsors,
players, and volunteers for making this dream a reality.

We’re going to make a check presentation to the City of Greenville in the
near future for $500,000.This money and hopefully a matching grant that
Greenville Recreation and Parks has applied for will begin Phase I of
renovating the old Elm Street Gym into the new, totally accessible Drew
Steele Center!

We have decided to take this upcoming year to evaluate the needs of the
Center before continuing our fundraising. Given the economic times,
hopefully this will give all of you a little well deserved relief.

However, if you would like to continue to contribute to the drew Steele
Foundation, please go to our web site www.drewskip.com for additional
information.

We’ve had three wonderful events!  Drew, Coach Holtz and myself would like
to truly thank all of you for making each one of them special.

Sincerely,
Skip Holtz        Drew Steele

    Man, no more commercials with Skip and Drew? A lot goes to you, as not many people would have known if it wasnt shown over the media. Had a blast working with you guys on them and that’s great news to hear about their success!
