On June 8th, we invite you to join us at Mulholland Hills Country Club for the inaugural Tee It Up for Pali Golf Classic, a day of community, connection, and purpose.

This tournament is more than just a round of golf.

It is a way for us to come together and support Palisades Charter Elementary, a school that has been deeply impacted by the Palisades Fire. Nearly 70% of our campus was lost. While the heart of our school, the 100 year old schoolhouse, is still standing, it requires extensive remediation. Our students will not be able to return to their home campus until August 2028, and until then, our families and teachers are doing everything they can to create stability and normalcy in the midst of so much uncertainty.

Since relocating to the Brentwood Science Magnet campus, our community has been doing its best to stay strong, but it has not been easy. We have lost families along the way, which has directly impacted school funding, and many of those who remain are quietly carrying so much on their shoulders. Parents are navigating the emotional and financial strain of rebuilding their homes, dealing with insurance, permits, contractors, and everything that comes with starting over. Because of that, the time, energy, and ability to fundraise or volunteer has understandably been limited.

That is why this event matters so much.

We need our extended community to step in and help us Tee It Up for Pali, because this is what Pali Strong – Rebuilding Together truly looks like. It’s showing up for our students, rebuilding what was lost, and making sure that when the time comes, our children can return to a thriving campus in the Palisades.

This is our first annual tournament, and we are committed to continuing this tradition for years to come in support of our school.

We will also take time to honor the lives lost in the Palisades Fire. Throughout the course, 12 holes will feature “Tee It Up for [Name]” In Memoriam tributes for the individuals who tragically passed:

Charles Mortimer (84), Pacific Palisades

Randall “Randy” Miod (55), Malibu

Rory Sykes (32), Malibu

Elizabeth Morgan (79), Pacific Palisades

Annette Rossilli (mid 80s), Pacific Palisades

Betty O'Meara (94), Malibu

Mark Shterenberg (80), Pacific Palisades
