Don Driving Thru Pacific Northwest

Don will participate in two charity golf events coming up in July.

The Courtnall Celebrity Classic has raised in excess of $2 million for the Victoria (BC) Hospitals Foundation and the Archie Courtnall Centre in support of mental health programs. This year’s event will be held at the Victoria Golf Club in Victoria, BC, from July 22- 24. The tournament was established by former National Hockey League players Geoff and Russ Courtnall and their brother Bruce. Past celebrity participants have included NHL legend Wayne Gretzky and actor Kiefer Sutherland. More information at their expansive event website.

KISS guitarist Tommy Thayer hosts the Pacific University Legends Golf Classic in Aloha (near Beaverton) OR on July 31 – August 1. This exclusive two-day event includes dinner, auction and celebrity concert. Proceeds benefit the university’s student athletes. More details at the tournament website.

Cooper’s Christmas Pudding Includes Don

Don will be among the ingredients stirred into Alice Cooper’s 10th Christmas Pudding Show, scheduled for Saturday, December 18 in Phoenix.

Billed as a “night of comedy and music,” the Pudding benefit assembles an eclectic cabaret-style mix of entertainment in support of the Solid Rock, an organization dedicated to providing educational and social programs for the community’s youth. Don has participated in previous editions during the course of the popular yuletide event’s ten year existence.

Pictures of You, Pictures of Me

Cute idea from the folks at the Moondance Jam. They offer on their website all of the photos Don took with fans at last month’s show’s meet & greet. Just select, download and print.

Wonder if Don was aware that the complete photo shoot would end up online? Gotta give him credit for managing to pose for over 80 different shots without morphing into a prop.

By the way, our favorite Don is #8 with #37 a close second.

Summer Schedule Heating Up

Our tour page has seen some updates over the past few weeks, so if you haven’t checked it for a while, it’s worth doing so.

The latest addition is a new show date on August 6th at the Spiedie Fest in Binghamton, NY. Don will also be in Minneapolis, MN on July 24th and Sun Valley, ID on August 18th.
