The 2025 Regional Chair's Classic in memory of Roger Anderson brought together community leaders, generous sponsors, and avid golfers to support students and mental health initiatives across Durham Region.

Held on Thursday, June 12 at Deer Creek Golf and Country Club in Ajax, the 27th annual tournament welcomed 184 participants who rallied behind a common cause—helping students at Ontario Tech University and Durham College, as well as supporting patient-focused programs at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences.

This year’s event raised an impressive $268,000, bringing the tournament’s total fundraising efforts to over $8 million since its inception.

“Each year, this tournament plays a vital role in supporting students in need at Ontario Tech University and Durham College, as well as the invaluable youth programs at Ontario Shores Centre. It is a true testament to the power of community and generosity,” said Regional Chair John Henry. “There is no better way to celebrate Roger Anderson’s remarkable legacy of service than by coming together for a fantastic day on the golf course, united in our commitment to these meaningful causes.”
