Anyone see the dollar amount that this tournament raised?
Fireworks for the big party Saturday night cost thousands of dollars while the guests supped on lobster tails, filet mignon and Cristal.
While Rome is burning, the party continues.
Same attitudes led to the French Revolution.

Walnut,

I can only hope that many who read this will see the ugly true nature of these so called "Fund raisers" for the poor and needy as for what it is, a money making scam..........

Ever wonder what is the fee charged to all those SPECIAL GUEST to just show up ? ever wonder where that money comes from ?

Maybe, JUST MAYBE.....they'll get that Holiday guilt feeling and donate those 5 star meal left overs to the poor.......

FOR THOSE WISHING TO DONATE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON, DONATE FOOD, CLOTHING AND BASIC NECESSITIES. BE SURE TO DONATE IN PERSON TO THOSE WHO NEED IT NOT THE ORGANIZERS, MAKE SURPRISE VISITS, AND NEVER DONATE MONEY....

I do not think Rome is burning and I believe that funds do go to a charitable cause but probably not as much as the scale of the event would suggest ..When ever I see the word foundation I wonder if the taxation benefits,under USA tax rules, are not the main motivation rather than charitable feelings.

It's the best form of tax ride-off, nothing like 501 C-3 to boot, nothing like making big money overseas away from the hands of the U.S tax man. If you like I can go into more detail.
