Oregon Burn Center Advisory Council

Legacy Emanuel Hospital & Health Care

Dear Friends, 

As the sun shines again across golf courses everywhere, firefighters take up the task of charity work. With a sense of pride and generosity, the Fire District 6 firefighters aka The International Association of Firefighters Local 1805 proudly announce their 15th annual charity golf tournament. Our event, The Bob Allen Memorial Golf Tournament honors our fallen brother and celebrates his spirit of fun and adventure. This tournament generates money each year for The Oregon Burn Center at Emanuel Hospital .  Each year generous sponsorships help make this the biggest burn center event in Clark County . Once more, we come seeking support to benefit local burn victims. This year’s event will be held July 18th 2008 at The Cedars on Salmon Creek in Brush Prairie.

For more than a quarter of a century, the Oregon Burn Center has cared for the region’s most severely burned patients. As one of only 135 burn centers in the nation, The Oregon Burn Center team provides the critical and specialized care needed for the treatment of burn injuries and tissue destroying diseases.

Community interest and support have played a significant role throughout the Burn Center’s history. The dollars raised from area firefighter’s golf tournaments is truly making a difference. Proceeds from these tournaments help:

·        The Education and Prevention Program

·        Burn Survivors School Re-entry Program

·        Summer Camp Scholarships

 The Oregon Burn Center needs your support. Please take a moment to consider participating in this worthy cause. Sponsorship of a hole begins at $100.00 and a cart sponsorship is $25.00. All money gifts are 100% tax deductible and checks are made out directly to the Oregon Burn Center . A sign at a tee box will recognize each hole sponsor. Whether a sponsor or not, feel free to tee up with us as all are welcome to enter a team in our 4 man scramble format. We look forward to working and playing together with you for this deserving cause.

Thank you for your consideration,

Mike Swanson

I talked to Bill Quimby, my contact at The Oregon Burn Center the other day. He thanked us again for all we do for contributing to the summer burn camp program. He told me about a 13 year old girl who received several burns on her legs and went through the long, painful rehabilitation at the burn center. Physically, she recovered but will have dreadful scars the rest of her life. Not surprisingly, she exclusively wore pants to hide the scars. Then she went to burn camp. When she came back from burn camp for kids she decided to wear dresses again, not worry about things she can not change and be the person she wants to be. This camp has turned her life around. This is why each year the proceeds from the Bob Allen Memorial Golf Tournament help fund this camp. I hope we continue to seek each of our networks for hole sponsorships and prize donations. This certainly is a worthwhile cause
