We held our 17th Annual Charity Golf Outing June 24, 2001 at the beautiful Swan-E-Set Bay Resort & Country Club in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The great success of this event allowed the two Make-A-Wish chapters of Make-A-Wish Foundation of Alaska, Montana, Northern Idaho & Washington and Make-A-Wish Foundation of BC to benefit from this year's event. We know that everyone involved is proud to have helped in granting wishes to children with life-threatening illness no matter what your role was in helping show that "LP Cares".

We at Downing & Downing would again like to thank our co-sponsors, retailers, loss prevention executives, and the National Retail Federation for the donations and support in continuing to Make Wishes Come True. We hope that all of you will join us next year in Austin, Texas.
