The “Fore for Pets” tournament takes place at the Cooke Municipal Golf Course and will feature several high-profile stars, including World Champion bobsledder Amanda Stepenko, who is also a vegan.

Joining Stepenko will be retired pro hockey player Dave Shultz, Olympic skeleton athletes Amy Gough and Michelle Kelly, Olympic skiers Karen Stemmle and Liisa Savijarvi, former Saskatchewan Roughriders Wes Cates and Dan Rashovich, Canadian Tour golf pro Stuart Anderson and Pro Am golfers Alan McLean and Kent Fukushima.
