5th Annual Hokie Spirit Memorial Golf Tournament

5th Annual Hokie Spirit Memorial Golf Tournament On 4.16.07, the Virginia Tech community lost 32 beautiful souls. To read more about our efforts please visit our website.

In our 5th year, HSM aims to remember those we lost, support our survivors and make our campuses safer. More about the VTV Family Outreach Foundation:
On April 16, 2007, the world lost 32 extraordinary individuals, each one unique and special, but all of whom shared common characteristics: intellectual curiosity, academic achievement, kindness, a respect and tolerance for others and compassion. Al

l gave of themselves: to their families, friends, colleagues, university and communities. On that same tragic day, other students, faculty members and staff were injured, physically and/or psychologically. They, too, are unique and special and share common characteristics: a willingness to forgive, gratitude for life, a desire to commemorate those who were lost and a passion to make the world a better place. Many of the survivors, their family members and family members of those who died joined as one to form this Foundation in order to:

Care for each other and all who may be impacted by campus tragedy
Ensure that our campuses remain safe and secure for our students
Create a living legacy of the 32 who died that fateful day

As we get closer to the 8th anniversary this Thursday, we have received several questions about the tournament as well as countless words of support and remembrance. We set out in 2007 to create an event where we could come together and remember while doing good for the world. We are humbled by the friends, family and community involvement and interest! While the 5th anniversary golf tournament was our final annual event, we are excited to let you know we are currently evaluating a 10th anniversary event. More information to come over the next several months!

Friends: the response this year has been overwhelming to say the least. I, and the Cook family, cannot possibly start to express our gratitude. We have 34 teams (last year we had 24), an amazing title sponsor with NewClients, Inc., over 20 volunteers and today we found out that we will be receiving a $7,500 donation from a local company because of our story. Y'all are amazing and incredible and you're helping us change campuses across the US by making them safer. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
