This year's event will be on Aug. 19 at Whitewater Golf.
THUNDER BAY -- It's the last push for sales for the third annual Golf Balls from Heaven Ball Drop, presented by TbayTel
Dustin's dreams of playing on the PGA Tour and his love for the game of golf kept him fighting against Cancer and defying all odds. When he was first diagnosed with cancer he didn't let that get in his way. The doctors told him he had less than a 5 per cent chance of living and if he did survive after his surgery he wouldn't be able to walk or play golf again.
A part of his dreams came true when he played in front of local friends and family on the PGA Tour of Canada Staal Open at Whitewater golf club in 2017 at the age of 21 while still undergoing chemotherapy as his cancer had returned. Hundred per cent of the proceeds will be going back to families in Northwestern, Ont. from the ball drop as a part of our new "Raising the Barr Grant" application. We have partnered with organizations like the Tbaytel Tamarack House, Sick kids and the Ronald McDonalds House. So if you are a family struggling, and need extraordinary expenses covered due to life-threatening illnesses and travel, we want to hear your story.
