Walden on Lake Conroe Golf Club (13101 Walden Road, Montgomery, 77356) is proud to be the new national location for our Annual Charity Golf Tournament that is open to the public and is in support of Golfers Against Cancer (GAC).
Thank you to all our incredible sponsors and attendees who joined us for our Gala for a Cure: A Night in Havana, and our tournament on Monday, October 21, 2024. We reached our goal, and raised over $300,000. Our next step is to proudly honor our "Carson Hiemenz Grant" and fund much needed research to give new treatment options to children fighting blastoma cancer.
Over the past 29 years, we are proud to have provided more than $2,000,000 to Golfers Against Cancer National from our Walden Tournaments AND through the years, Golfers Against Cancer as a whole has been instrumental in raising over $28 million for cancer research. Golfers Against Cancer efforts have helped fund over 100+ specific cancer research projects at leading medical institutions around the nation focusing on cures for a wide range of cancers. Together, we can help end cancer!

WHO CAN PLAY AND WHAT IS THE COST?
Individuals and teams welcome! The Walden GAC Golf Tournament is A 4-person scramble format, open event for all golfers. Individuals can register for $200 and a foursome team for $800.
The Denver Chapter was started in 2009 with the mission to assist researchers in advancing their projects to the stage where they can receive federal grants. Our organization is unique in that it sponsors research projects that are in the early stages of development that would not normally qualify for federal funding. To date, we have donated over $1.8 million to Colorado-based research projects and we are proud to announce that these projects have received over $28 million in additional grant money as a direct result of our donations. In addition, we have funded two projects that have led to the development of a clinical trial. Our 2024 goal is to donate over $100,000, from our events, which will be used to provide funding for research being conducted at local research facilities in Colorado.
The 16th Annual AutoNation Golfers Against Cancer Golf Tournament was held on July 25th at The Ridge at Castle Pines. Event details for 2025 are coming soon!
