Everything You Need to Know About The 11th Annual Caleb Walker Memorial Golf Tournament

We’re thrilled to be gearing up for the 11th Annual Caleb Walker Memorial Golf Tournament, a day that grows in meaning, community, and impact each year. This special event honors Caleb’s legacy and raises essential funds to provide Respites for families battling life-threatening illnesses.

Here’s everything you need to know about this year’s tournament: from the schedule and location to what makes this day so meaningful.

What Can I Expect?

Caleb loved golf, and this tournament is a celebration of his life, his spirit, and the mission of A Week Away. While it’s a memorial event, it’s also a day of joy, great food and drinks, and of course, golf. It’s a time to connect and raise funds to give families facing life-threatening illness the gift of time away. Expect a laid-back, uplifting atmosphere, just the way Caleb would’ve wanted: golf club in one hand, a cold drink in the other. Golfers can look forward to a beautiful day on a world-class course, complete with exciting opportunities to win big, including a chance to win a car and a $25,000 hole-in-one prize.
