All proceeds from the event are going to the Fallyn Zembiec Education Fund.

Also, the Erik Kristensen Eye Street Klassic is a golf tournament that will be held on May 9th at Andrews Air Force Base. Kristensen (USNA ’95) was a Navy SEAL killed in Afghanistan when the CH-47 helicopter he was riding went down. From the site:

True to his love of learning, Erik had been awarded an Olmsted Foundation Scholarship and was to have studied at the Institute for Political Studies in Paris in 2006. In his honor, Erik’s family, classmates, friends, and those who were inspired by him founded The LCDR Erik S. Kristensen ’90, USN, Memorial Scholarship Fund. The fund seeks to assist a Gonzaga student whose family serves in the United States Armed Forces, and it will forever remind his fellow Eagles of what it means to be a Man for Others.

The tournament is to raise money for the scholarship fund. Take a look!
