The upcoming 10th Annual Runaway Open charity golf tournament will benefit Pasadena Rosebud Academy, a tuition-free, non-sectarian charter school serving Black and Hispanic K-8 students for 18 years, that burned down in January and is slowly rebuilding.
Recent wildfires in Southern California - principally the Palisades Fire and the Eaton Fire - completely destroyed a dozen schools. The Eaton Fire alone burned 9,000 buildings and 14,000 acres, killed 17 people, and destroyed three charter schools, each of which faces significant challenges. Some of those are receiving significant support, but Rosebud Academy is still struggling to meet it's initial GoFundMe request.
The Runaway Open's previous nine events have taken place in Nevada and Colorado. This year's event will be in the Burbank area, in conjunction with Phish's upcoming three performances at the Hollywood Bowl, and will take place at DeBell Golf Club, a lush and lovely escape from the city that's nonetheless only about 8 miles from the venue. We hope to see you there, and ask that you share the link (mbird.org/10RO) anywhere you can. We also invite interest from any businesses willing to donate any funds as a sponsor, or able to donate items for the gift bags or raffle.
