Colorado Avalanche legends took to the golf course to raise money for Food Bank of the Rockies. Avs GM and former superstar Joe Sakic hosted his annual Joe Sakic Celebrity Golf Classic at Sanctuary Golf Course.
The golf course is in Sedalia, and it’s owned by RE/MAX founders Dave and Gail Liniger. Said course is devoted solely to hosting charity golf events. This year’s event marks the 22nd annual — and consecutive — event to raise money for Food Bank of the Rockies. Funds from the event have provided more than 21 million meals.
Sakic became involved with the Food Bank in 1998, just three years after the hockey franchise moved to Denver and became the Colorado Avalanche.
