The charity golf tournament supporting the Danny Thompson Memorial Fund started today and continues through tomorrow.

Show & Golf for Cancer Research

Don returns to Sun Valley this week to participate in the Danny Thompson Memorial Golf Tournament (Aug 19-21). The event, created in honor of former Minnesota Twins/Texas Rangers player Danny Thompson in 1976, amassed an amazing $10 million last year, all of which went directly to funding leukemia research.

He’ll “warm up for the golf” by playing a benefit concert prior to the tournament on Wednesday, August 18 at the Sun Valley Pavilion. As of this posting, tickets are still available, with special VIP premium seating including a pre-concert cocktail meet-and-mingle with Don.
