The Champions Tour returns to Des Moines! The Principal Charity Classic presented by Sammons Financial Group will be played at Glen Oaks Country Club in West Des Moines May 31 - June 6, 2010. Don't miss out on the ONLY professional golf tournament in Iowa! This charitable event is packed with family-friendly activities and of course, golf's greatest players!

The Principal Charity Classic is a wonderful community event and contributes greatly to the economic vitality and quality of life in central Iowa. The tournament also serves specifically as a way to raise money for local non-profit organizations supporting children. The Blank Park Zoo is one of outstanding organizations dedicated to supporting children that will receive the proceeds from the 2009 event!

 
Birdies for Charity

 
The Blank Park Zoo is partnering with the Principal Charity Classic's Birdies for Charity.
 
Every birdie made during the Principal Charity Classic means bucks for charity!  Make a pledge and 100% of your donation will go directly to the charity of your choice. 
 
There are two ways to pledge:
  • A per-birdie amount for every birdie made by the Champions Tour players during the three-day Principal Charity Classic, or
  • A one-time flat donation

Minimum flat donation             $10
Minimum per-birdie                 $.02
Birdies made in 2007               727
Birdies made in 2008               787
For example, a pledge of $.02 per birdie: $.02 x 800 birdies = $16
 
What is a "birdie"?
A “birdie” is a score of one stroke better than “par” for any golf hole on the course.  “Par” is the normal expected score of a golf professional on any given hole.  For example, on a par 4 hole, a score of 3 is a birdie.
