Statement of Marty Russo, chairman of Washington Golf Charities On News of Booz Allen Hamilton and Title Sponsorship of the Booz Allen Classic March 20, 2006
We are extremely grateful that Booz Allen Hamilton has agreed to remain involved by committing $1 million as a supporting sponsor starting in 2007.
Working alongside the PGA TOUR and tournament operator KemperSports, Washington Golf Charities is committed to securing a new title sponsor. We are currently looking at both local and national companies to fill that role. The Booz Allen Classic has significantly impacted the local community since moving to the Washington area in 1980, distributing nearly $10 million to charities. We are confident that we will continue to provide a first-class professional golf event in Washington for many years to come."
