BROOKS, Calif., June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 15, Cache Creek Casino Resort proudly partnered with the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation to host the third annual charity golf tournament at the stunning Yocha Dehe Golf Club. The event brought together tribal leaders, vendors, and community partners with a shared purpose: to raise essential funds to support two remarkable organizations—First Tee of Greater Sacramento and the Forgotten Soldier Program.
Together, the tournament helped advance First Tee's mission to empower young people with life skills and character development through the game of golf, and it strengthened the Forgotten Soldier Program's critical work supporting veterans and first responders in their time of need. The event raised $125,000 thanks to overwhelming generosity, with $62,500 directly benefiting each organization.
"Our investment in the First Tee of Greater Sacramento reflects our belief in the power of mentorship and the long-term impact of positive youth development," said Anthony Roberts, Tribal Chairman of the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation. "We're proud to share our ancestral lands to support these young people as they build confidence, leadership, and integrity through the game of golf."
Kari Stout-Smith, General Manager and COO of Cache Creek Casino Resort, added, "We're incredibly proud to stand behind the Forgotten Soldier Program and their tireless work supporting those who have sacrificed so much. To witness our partners come together in such a meaningful way is not only humbling—it's a powerful reminder of the strength of our community."
"The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation's unwavering support for the Forgotten Soldier Program has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my time as a Board Member. Their generosity, hospitality, and deep commitment to our mission speak volumes. Because of their support, we're able to provide free, life-changing care to hundreds of veterans and first responders battling the invisible wounds of trauma," said Dave Perry, Board Member and Army Veteran.
Angie Dixon, CEO of First Tee – Greater Sacramento, concluded, "Greater Sacramento is honored to be one of the beneficiaries of this year's Cache Creek Charity Golf Tournament. We deeply appreciate the support, which allows us to continue providing life-changing opportunities for over 58,000 young people in our region each year through our character development programs. Together, we're building game changers."
