Annual Ryan Gordon Memorial Golf Tournament & Silent Auction to Benefit Cancer Research at The Hormel Institute
ADAMS, Minn. - The Ryan Gordon Memorial Golf Tournament & Silent Auction will be held on Saturday, June 17 at the Cedar Valley Golf Course in Adams. The annual event supports cancer research at The Hormel Institute.
The first Ryan Gordon Memorial Golf Tournament & Silent Auction was held in 2013, two years after Adams native Ryan Gordon passed away from stomach cancer at the age of 42.
“The pain of losing Ryan at such a young age is still very real and fresh and we miss him terribly,” said Shirley Gordon, Ryan’s mother.
Since its start, the event has raised more than $93,000. All of the proceeds have been donated to The Hormel Institute, where thanks to support from The Hormel Foundation, every dollar goes directly to research.
“There just has to be a cure and better treatments in our future and we hope our small efforts will help make a difference,” said Gordon.
