Tournament raises cash and awareness Continued from page 14 work, but also raise awareness about the need for its services. Halton Women's Place is the only emergency shelter in the Halton Region for abused women and their dependent children. It provides shelter services, transitional support services and a 24hour crisis line. The seeds of the charity golf tournament were planted as Turnbull golfed with friends. In the beginning it was open to club members only, then it was open to the public. Turnbull provided the club's coveted crystal trophies for the winners and raffle prizes saw everyone take home something. Even more than cash, the tournament has helped the community know of the shelter and its work. "Over 50 per cent of people contacted to support the event had never heard of Halton Women's Place," recalled Turnbull of the tournament's first year. "Thankfully, over the past 13 years, this has changed considerably," he said. The tournament would not be possible without its participants, and the support of the local business community, which annually provides hole sponsorships and prize donations, said Turnbull, who spends several months each year working on the tournament's organization. The awareness the tournament provides has seen Halton Women's Place garner other donations, too, which Turnbull said he's happy about. The Deerfield Golf Club Lady Members have donated gifts annually to the Halton Women's Place's Christmas Hamper Program. The Holiday Inn Select in Oakville has also, through the contacts made with the tournament, donated care packages for Mother's Day, Christmas holidays and sponsored events. "It is the awareness of these events that allows Halton Women's Place to continue to operate in the community," said Turnbull. When asked what the tournament means to Halton Women's Place, Executive Director, LaFerne Clarke said, "Halton is very fortunate to have a dedicated and loyal volunteer like Brian work on our behalf. Halton Women's Place is blessed that he cares and shares his time, energy and commitment with us. Brian's tournament has helped us heighten awareness on domestic violence in the Halton Region." Halton Women's Place raises about $500,000 annually through efforts like this golf tournament, which allows it to provide the much-needed services in the community. As Turnbull bows out of the tournament's organization he does so with regret, noting that demand for Halton Women's Place services is on the rise as Halton's population grows. Turnbull told The Oakville Beaver that in 2005, the shelter served approximately 700 women and children. In 2006, he said, that number had climbed to 1,100 -- with more than 1,500 in crisis calls.
