RESULTS OF THE INAUGURAL RICK PLOOR MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT

April 8, 2024, was an amazing day celebrating Rick Ploor and raising funds in his honor for Moffitt Cancer Center. The weather cooperated and I will give a nod to Rick for providing us with such a beautiful day and a partial solar eclipse! A huge thank you to all of our sponsors, golfers, in-kind donors and volunteers. Your support and generosity will make a difference in the lives of Melanoma patients and their families.

We raised a total of $60,000 for Moffitt Cancer Center, specifically for Melanoma Research. These dollars will support the Donald A. Adam Melanoma and Skin Cancer Center of Excellence Research Lab led by Keiran Smalley, PHD.
