Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation announces Hearts and Health Classic golf tournament
The Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation has announced its new golf tournament.
The foundation will debut its Hearts and Health Classic on Aug. 26, 2026, at Paradise Canyon.
The inaugural tournament will benefit the Bringing Hearts Home campaign to improve access to life-saving cardiac care throughout southern Alberta.
The classic follows the conclusion of the Val Matteotti Italian Open last year, which raised nearly $2 million in its 30-year history.
The foundation says money raised will go right back to helping those in the community.
'The support of volunteers and community members and donors and sponsors and just the effort that it takes to deliver a great day is so meaningful because every dollar contributed helps us care for every generation by addressing urgent needs across all age groups,' said Oliver Twizell, Chinook Regional Hospital Foundation development director.
The foundation is currently recruiting volunteer committee members to help shape the new event.
