Whatever the weather The Otter Company keeps you out, playing and comfortable
(January 23, 2012 – Coral Springs, FL) Caddy For A Cure, Inc., the professional golf opportunity to go inside the ropes and caddy for a day with the world’s best players, is proud to announce a new partnership with The Otter Company as a sponsor for 2012.
The Otter ™ Company designs, manufactures and markets comfortable, technical and ecologically sound outerwear for sports people of all levels. Their garments maximize playtime and extend both sessions and seasons with features that allow play earlier in the spring, later in the fall and on any inclement day and they do it in a way that protects the wearer and the environment. The otter’s fur is the thickest in the animal kingdom. Constructed in two layers, the brilliant natural design traps air to generate warmth and keeps the skin dry. The Otter Company products emulate the nature and spirit of the otter – its playfulness, freedom, a willingness to continue to enjoy itself when the weather is less than ideal and its naturally protective design.
Caddy For A Cure CEO and program founder Russ Holden said “This relationship with The Otter Company is the result of a seven year friendship that began in 2005 with one of our first Caddy For A Cure participants, Marty Stebbins. Marty was on the cutting edge of new opportunities in the world of professional golf when he bid on and won a caddy opportunity with us for Paul Azinger, and we believe he is absolutely on the cutting edge of his industry in outerwear apparel. Like virtually all of our former participants, Marty became part of the Caddy For A Cure ‘family’ that day in 2005 and has followed and supported our program all these years. Also like all of our participants, he had a true love of the game and a love for helping others. We are so honored that Marty reached out to us through his new venture with The Otter Company to find a way to show his support.” Holden concluded, “I have worn a lot of sports apparel over my life in golf and I can tell you that the products from The Otter Company are among the best I have ever worn. We are absolutely honored and proud to be able to provide this amazing line to our caddy participants.”
Marty Stebbins of The Otter Company commented, “When I first heard about Caddy For A Cure I thought it sounded like a lot of fun and was a great way for contributing to worthy causes. I was a big Azinger fan and Hilton Head sounded like a great place to go, so I figured I’d give it a try. It was a blast from start to finish and a day I obviously haven’t forgotten. I have followed Caddy For A Cure over the years and seen how the program has grown and the many people it has helped. With my business with The Otter Company, it made sense to partner with them to help support their worthy causes. We see it as a great fit for our outerwear products and are confident future program caddies will have as great of a time as I did, they’ll just be dressed better than I was back then!”
