July 9, 2025 | Belvedere Golf & Country Club
On Wednesday, July 9th, golfers will have the exclusive opportunity to hit the greens at the prestigious Belvedere Golf and Country Club. This sold-out event promises to be a remarkable experience for all participants, as we carefully pair each team with celebrities from the Edmonton Oilers/Alumni, Edmonton Elks/Alumni, and other sports/media personalities.
We believe what sets the Kevin Karius Celebrity Golf Classic, presented by Prism Flow Products, apart is the unique opportunity for golfers to play alongside these esteemed celebrities on a private course. This not only adds a touch of excitement to the event but also provides an excellent networking opportunity for all those involved while supporting a local charity, Easter Seals Alberta (https://easterseals.ab.ca/).
Our Charity of Choice for 2025 continues to be Easter Seals Alberta, which is a charity close to both our hearts. Easter Seals Alberta’s mission is to provide services that foster inclusion, independence and recreation for individuals with disabilities and medical conditions. They achieve this through their main programs; Easter Seals McQueen Home, Easter Seals Family Resource Center, and Easter Seals Camp Horizon.
Various levels of sponsorship opportunities are available. Please reach out to Darla at darla@pep-events.ca or call 780-267-0707 for more details.

June 13, 2025 | Sturgeon Valley Golf and Country Club
On Friday, June 13th, the Mental Health Golf Classic, presented by Volvo Cars Edmonton, will tee off at the spectacular Sturgeon Valley Golf and Country Club in St. Albert. This fundraising tournament, in support of the Canadian Mental Health Association Edmonton, will bring together local businesses, golf enthusiasts and community leaders, offering the opportunity to enjoy a fabulous day on the greens and many opportunities to network with others in the community.
Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or a beginner, this tournament is for everyone. Be part of this exciting Texas Scramble format with a shotgun start at 8:00 am followed by a banquet, prizing/draws, and an auction.
This year, we mark 50 years of Edmonton’s 24-hour Distress Line service, which has served hundreds of thousands of people in crisis and trained thousands of community volunteers to intervene in mental health, family violence and suicide crises. The proceeds from this year's event will directly benefit the operation of CMHA-Edmonton’s Distress Line. Your contribution helps ensure this critical service is there for those who need it most.

What a great pleasure it’s been to work with Darla on the Mental Health Golf Classic! As chair of the event in 2024 and again this year, 2025, I truly appreciated her deep knowledge of what goes into making a golf tournament run smoothly and professionally. Every aspect of her work – her thoroughness, her attention to detail, and her positive attitude that there’s no challenge that can’t be overcome – made our event the resounding success it was. Kudos to Darla and Prestige Event Planning!

“I have worked with Darla Zuk for the past 17 years on the Kevin Karius Celebrity Golf Classic. The tournament has become one of the top golf tournaments in Edmonton. The main reason for this is the extreme hard work Darla puts in organizing the tournament. No detail is overlooked. In fact, it is her attention to detail that makes the tournament run so smoothly. Darla’s ability to pull things together, from taking care of our valued sponsors, to something that seems as small as lunch for the volunteers, does not go unnoticed. We have many golfers that play in a lot of charity tournament. They all say the Easter Seals Celebrity Golf Classic is one o the best run tournaments they play in. A big reason why, is the hard work and dedication of Darla Zuk.
