TOMMY HOSTS LEGENDS GOLF CLASSIC THIS WEEKEND
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY
By Joe Lang
Pacific University's 2010 Legends Golf Classic hosted by Tommy Thayer, August 1 and 2 at the Reserve Vineyards and Golf Club, is sold out, marking an unprecedented milestone in the event's history.
The sellout is the first in the event's four-year history, equating to a record attendance figure.
"We are very proud of the enormous response the 2010 Legends Golf Classic has received," KISS lead guitarist and Pacific Trustee Thayer said. "The early sellout clearly indicates that Legends and Pacific University have ascended to a new level of public awareness. Legends 2010 has already succeeded in many ways and the best is yet to come."
Among the list of celebrity participants are KISS founding member Gene Simmons and his partner Shannon Tweed. Producers from A&E's hit television series Gene Simmons Family Jewels will film portions of the event to chronicle golf novice Simmons' attempt at the sport.
