Meijer LPGA Classic Launches Exciting Father's Day Contest for Families to Celebrate

In a heartwarming initiative, the Meijer LPGA Classic for Simply Give is set to honor father figures during its upcoming tournament weekend, coinciding with Father's Day. This year, the event is introducing a brand-new contest, 'Inside the Ropes,' where families can creatively express why their father or role model deserves a VIP experience at the event.

Starting today, community members are encouraged to submit a 400-word essay that highlights their father's qualities and justifies their nomination for this unique opportunity. Contestants must also convey their excitement about experiencing this remarkable journey together during such a meaningful weekend. Entrants under the age of 17 can participate if their essay is submitted by an adult over 18. Each day of the tournament, a winning submission will be chosen, granting the winner and their father exclusive access to an insider’s view of the tournament alongside LPGA professionals. This is not just a chance to witness the action; it’s an opportunity to create cherished memories together on the green.

Participants have until May 25 to submit their essays through the dedicated contest page at meijerlpgaclassic.com/fan-experience#fathers-day-contest. The winners will be awarded:
  • - Two 'Inside the Ropes' passes valid during any day from June 12 to June 15, chosen by mutual agreement.
  • - Complimentary admission to the tournament on the chosen day.
  • - A $500 donation to the Meijer Simply Give program in their name.
  • - A $50 Meijer gift card.

Cathy Cooper, executive director of the tournament, shared her enthusiasm for this initiative, stating, "The Meijer LPGA Classic's goal is to bring families together while supporting our communities. This contest provides a special way to honor the incredible fathers and role models who make a difference every day. We are thrilled to provide families with an opportunity to share their stories and make unforgettable memories 'Inside the Ropes' during such a significant weekend."

The Meijer LPGA Classic for Simply Give will take place from June 12 to June 15 at the scenic Blythefield Country Club in Belmont, Michigan. This tournament continues a tradition of excellence, having raised over $12 million in its previous ten iterations to combat hunger via the Simply Give program, which supports local food pantries across the Midwest.

To further celebrate Father's Day on June 15, all fathers will enjoy free general admission on the course, while active military personnel, veterans, and their companions will also benefit from complimentary access throughout the tournament days when they present valid identification.
