Microspace Communications Corporation was recently a corporate sponsor of the 2009 The Patricia Neal Golf Classic, an event benefiting the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center in Knoxville, TN. The 2009 Golf Classic was held Monday, August 10, 2009 at Holston Hills Country Club, Knoxville, TN
The Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center is named in honor of a child of Knoxville, a gifted actress, a gallant woman who became a national symbol of hope through her rehabilitation from three massive strokes. The Center is dedicated to people with disabilities who are learning to become as independent as they possibly can.
Over the last 24 years, this prestigious golf tournament has raised over $3.2 million in net proceeds to support the many programs and services of the rehab center. The tournament brings Tennessee professional golfers together with local amateurs for a worthwhile cause at one of the state’s top courses.
According to Joe Amor, Vice President and General Manager of Microspace, “The Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center has treated over 77,000 people since 1978. It’s an incredible organization and we are certainly pleased to be able to lend our support.”
