The UHC Pro-Am will be hosted by WVU Medicine United Hospital Center (UHC), United Health Foundation (UHF), and title sponsor BlaineTurner Advertising (BTA), with the event being held on Monday, September 26, at Pete Dye Golf Club in Bridgeport.  

 

This is the fourth year for the tournament, which has raised more than $610,000 for projects and programs at UHC. Fourth year title sponsor BTA donated $35,000 toward the fund-raising effort, bringing their total donations to more than $110,000 since the tournament’s inception.

 

This year’s tournament will raise funds for the new WVU School of Nursing program on the UHC campus by providing state-of-the-art training equipment for the skills lab.  This unique partnership is the newest School of Nursing campus, which will offer the fast-track BS/BA to BSN nursing program  alongside state-of-the-art classrooms, and skills labs that are just steps away from the clinical facility at UHC.
