Think About It. Barry Spiegelman Memorial Golf Classic Benefits Brain Cancer Research

(DALLAS, TX) -- Inspired by Beryl Co-Founder Barry Spiegelman who lost his battle with brain cancer in September 2005, The Beryl Institute is hosting the second annual Barry Spiegelman Memorial Golf Classic and Fundraiser on March 31 at Sky Creek Ranch Golf Club in Keller, Texas. To celebrate his life and the treatment he received, proceeds from the tournament will be presented to UCLA’s Neuro-Oncology Program, Art of the Brain.

“Barry made a lasting impact on all who knew him, and his contributions helped make Beryl the company it is today,” said Beryl CEO Paul Spiegelman, Barry’s brother and business partner. “Through this tournament, we are able to honor his memory and support an organization that does so much for people battling brain cancer; all while engaged in one of Barry’s favorite activities.”

Tournament fees of $150 per individual or $600 per foursome include course fees, contest awards and a dinner reception. Limited sponsorships ranging from $500-$5,000 are available. Information and registration is available at www.barryspiegelmanmemorial.com.
