Not many things go better together than the U.S. Open and
Father’s Day. We know any dad who is a golf
junkie is going to have an amazing weekend! Team McGladrey member Zach Johnson is in Pinehurst, NC this
week to play in the second major of the year, teed off this morning (June 12)
at 7:40 a.m. ET on tee No. 10. Best of luck this weekend, Zach! And we wish all
those dads out there who will be tuning in or watching in person a HAPPY
FATHER’S DAY!
Last week was a big week for McGladrey and for The McGladrey
Classic. First of all, The McGladrey Classic debuted this year’s 2014 McGladrey
Classic “Love It” shirts. Head over to our merchandise site to browse all the
items and to purchase your attire for this year’s tournament! As always, we’d
love to see pictures of you sporting McGladrey Classic gear! Be sure to tag us
on Facebook!
Don’t forget!
Birdies Fore Love goes LIVE on Mon., June 16. This year’s Birdies Fore
Love leader is Teresa Carlin. She’ll be a guest blogger around tournament week!
In this role, Teresa will be responsible for leading McGladrey’s employee
corporate social responsibility efforts related to this year’s tournament. To
date, The McGladrey Classic has raised more than $1.8 million for national and
local charitable organizations. $430,000 of last year’s donations were raised
by McGladrey employees and clients through Birdies Fore Love! With corporate
responsibility being such a key focus for McGladrey, we’re thrilled to continue
our firm’s philanthropic efforts through The McGladrey Classic.
Another item from last week: Sea Island, home of The
McGladrey Classic, is back in the news! The Cloister and The Lodge have been
recognized by travelers on the world’s largest travel site and have been
awarded the 2014 TripAdvisor
Certificate of Excellence! So if you needed a reason to join us for The
McGladrey Classic in October – now you have it! Rooms fill up quickly, though,
so make your reservations today!
To wrap up this week’s post, we want to congratulate Ben Crane, 2011 McGladrey Classic
champion, on his big win last week at the FedEx St. Jude Classic. Fantastic
job, Ben! We’re so proud that, as a member of the McGladrey “family”, he had such a great week!
Check back next week for more updates on Team McGladrey and
the 2014 McGladrey Classic (Oct. 20-26)!
