Our Mission

A round of golf. A lasting impact.

We celebrate the life of Danny "Vernon" Kleiman at The Bog with golf, food, drinks, and fun — raising awareness and funds for the fight against pancreatic cancer.

Since 2003, across fourteen tournaments, our friends and family have gathered for a summer day of golf — an activity Danny loved — to celebrate his life and carry his memory forward.
