Meet Dave Taylor, Jim Fox, and many more alums of the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday, May 21 from 4-6 p.m. at Outback Steakhouse (137 E. Thousand Oaks Blvd., Thousand Oaks, CA 92360).
According to Jim Fox, Dave Taylor’s golf classic co-host for his 2nd year, this is one of the first years the meet and greet is preceding the golf classic. They came up with the idea of the meet and greet for a few reasons. It’s a great chance for fans who can’t make the golf classic (or who don’t golf) to meet some of the Kings alums. The meet and greet is also a way to acknowledge Outback Steakhouse, one of their big sponsors for the Dave Taylor/Jim Fox Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic. Fox mentioned that many times in the fund raising events the sponsor gets left out of the picture. They contribute so much, but can get lost in the shuffle. The meet and greet at an Outback Steakhouse is a way of thanking the sponsor and getting the fans to Outback Steakhouse.
Fans will be able to learn more about the 21st annual Cystic Fibrosis Golf Classic, chat with Kings alums (including Jim Fox and Dave Taylor, co-hosts of the classic), and may sign up to participate in the classic, taking place on Monday, June 15, 2009.
Jim Fox said his favorite thing about the meet and greets is the casual format. Since there’s no pressure, fans can just stop by, talk hockey, or talk about whatever they’d like. He also likes the fact that they’re able to thank the sponsor for all they do to help the event and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Foxy believes he’s participated in the golf classic ever since Taylor started it 21 years ago without missing a year. That’s a lot of dedication to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Kings. He may have to miss playing in this year’s golf classic due to personal reasons, but will certainly be co-hosting and playing in the classic for years to come.
