Location:	Kanata Golf and Country Club & Dinner at Scotiabank Place
Achievement:	$125,000 raised in 2009 for CHEO and other charities

Since 1993, Bell and the Ottawa Senators Hockey Club have teamed up for their prestigious Bell/Ottawa Senators Charity Golf Classic. The 16th Annual Bell/Ottawa Senators Charity Golf Classic, which was held Friday, September 11, 2009 at Kanata Golf & Country Club, raised $125,000. With this total, the Bell/Ottawa Senators Charity Golf Classic has now collected more than $1,220,000 over its 16-year history. Of the monies raised, $50,000 is destined for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) and $75,000 for the Sens Foundation to support registered charitable organizations, whose programs focus on improving the quality of life for underprivileged children and youth.

Each year the Ottawa Senators roster takes to the links in support of worthy charitable causes. The tournament features 36 corporate foursomes hosted by Senators team personnel. The day includes 18 holes of golf, a hearty BBQ lunch, fabulous participant gifting, the opportunity to win Senators Club seat tickets in the hole-in-one completion, and there is always a few additional surprises. Tournament play is followed by a cocktail reception and dinner. Participants are treated to a one of a kind menu and the evening includes live and silent auctions, raffles, and much more.

The Bell/Ottawa Senators Charity Golf Classic is the only event each year to include not only the regular roster of Ottawa Senators players and management but also several NHL hopefuls from the Binghamton Senators. The event sells out early every year.

Bell and the Sens Foundation announced in May 2006 a commitment to raise $1 million for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) over a five-year period. The 16th Annual Bell/Ottawa Senators Charity Golf Classic, which is the club’s first official public function of the season, is one of the events that will help Bell and the Sens Foundation fulfill the million-dollar goal.
