Join The Giboney Foundation at the Wolf Creek Golf Experience!
The Giboney Foundation, in partnership with 1000 Rounds of Golf, is thrilled to announce the 2025 Giboney Foundation Wolf Creek Golf Experience! This exciting event provides three rounds of golf at some of the best courses in Mesquite - CasaBlanca, Conestoga, and the iconic Wolf Creek Golf Course!
Arrive on December 4, 2025, at the Eureka Casino Resort and join us in our Cocktail Hour, where you can meet you fellow golfers and relax before the first of three incredible rounds of golf in the deserts and valleys of Nevada! Enjoy friendly competition as skins games promise to bring out the "talker" in us all! Also, one lucky participant will receive a three-night getaway to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in a studio unit at Villa La Valencia (airfare, food, beverage and local transportation is not included).
In addition to the competition and incredible golf, this is an opportunity to support the next generations of leaders as the proceeds will benefit The Giboney Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to investing in the future of young adults from diverse backgrounds by providing scholarships, mentorships, and development programs. By participating in this retreat, golfers will not only indulge in their passion but also contribute to a meaningful cause, making a positive impact on the next generation.
