The Stretch Drive Fund, an initiative led by the officials of the Atlantic Provinces Harness Racing Commission (APHRC), will host its 15th annual charity golf tournament on Wednesday, Aug. 13, 2025, at Fox Meadow Golf Club in Stratford, P.E.I. The event will have an 8 a.m. shotgun start.
Launched to support individuals and families involved in the Atlantic harness racing community during times of hardship, the Stretch Drive Fund also contributes to an annual scholarship for students whose families are active in the sport. To date, the Fund has distributed more than $130,000 in support, with oversight provided by the APHRC Senior Judges Committee.
The tournament is open to a maximum of 24 teams, with registration now available at a cost of $400 per team. All registration must be completed through the APHRC office by calling 902-836-5500 or emailing [email protected].
In addition to team entries, organizers are also seeking hole co-sponsorships at $100 per hole, as well as donated prizes for the tournament. Sponsors will be recognized with signage at their designated hole and acknowledged in tournament coverage. All proceeds go directly to the Stretch Drive Fund.
Payments and donations can be submitted by mail or delivered in person to local race offices, paddock judges or any APHRC judge. Cheques should be made payable to:
