Gold Mountain’s Cascade Course to get $4 million upgrade

The 15th annual Golf for Joy Tournament, presented by Northwestern Mutual, brought together new golfers, longtime champions, and familiar faces at the stunning Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club outside Portland, Oregon. With play spanning both the exclusive Witch Hollow and Ghost Creek courses, the tournament delivered two memorable days of competition and camaraderie. Even more remarkable was the impact off the course: the event raised over one million dollars for Children’s Cancer Association and their free JoyRx Music, Mentorship, and Nature programs — the highest total in Golf for Joy’s history.
This year’s tournament welcomed 200 amateurs and professionals for an event inspired by the love of golf, paired with a commitment to community impact.
Congratulations went to the amateur foursome winners — Team Captain Brian Revord with Noel Preston, Tyler Breault, and Chris Theriault, joined by pro Jeff Gustafson of Club Green Meadows — and to the pro competition winners Bryce Fisher of Arrowhead Golf Club and Ryan Siegler of Baltimore Country Club. For many players, the opportunity to compete on Pumpkin Ridge’s world-class courses was a meaningful addition to the overall joy of sharing their support.

At its heart, the tournament is about more than golf — it’s about championing the mission of the Children’s Cancer Association: to empower all seriously ill children to express themselves, to play, and to make meaningful connections by enriching their treatment experience and improving their well-being with joy-based programs.
