2007 Herb's Paint & Body / Down Syndrome Guild Golf Classic

Herb's Paint & Body Announces the 2007 Golf Classic. This year Herb's is teaming up with the Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas to sponsor the Herb's/Down Syndrome Guild Golf Classic this fall. Two separate golf tournaments with over 22 years combined successes are now partnering to raise funds that will allow the Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas to carry out their mission of providing accurate and current information, resources and support for people with Down syndrome, their families and the community.

This inaugural year the tournament will be on October 22 at Brookhaven Country Club. Joe Trahan, WFAA-TV sports anchor, will serve as honorary chairman. More than 300 golfers are expected to participate in this year’s event.

The Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas will be the beneficiary of all proceeds of the tournament, expanding their impact in the community. The proceeds from the tournament will be designated to fund the long-term growth of the Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas which is the only local non-profit organization dedicated solely to providing resources and support to individuals with Down Syndrome and their families. Established in 1979, it operates primarily as a volunteer organization, mostly family members of individuals with Down syndrome and serves more than 1000 families in the Dallas area.

About the Down Syndrome Guild:
The Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas is the only local non-profit organization exclusively dedicated to providing resources and support to people with Down syndrome. Down syndrome is the most common birth defect in our country, and more than 2,700 families in our Dallas community have been directly impacted. For more than 20 years, the Down Syndrome Guild of Dallas has given hope and assistance to these families, mostly on a volunteer basis. The organization has led the charge, but needs your financial support. You can find more information about the Down Syndrome Guild at http://www.downsyndromedallas.org.
