Gary LeVox To Host BIRDI Celebrity Golf Invitational Benefiting Folds Of Honor
Rascal Flatts member Gary LeVox, co-founder of performance eyewear brand BIRDI, is hosting the BIRDI Celebrity Golf Invitational at Old Hickory Country Club in Old Hickory, Tennessee on Aug. 11.
The golf invitational will be held in collaboration with Folds of Honor and presenting sponsor Hard Rock. Guests will enjoy 18 holes of championship golf alongside celebrity players, a premium hospitality experience, exclusive gifting, and a post-round guitar pull-style show and awards dinner, culminating in silent and live auctions to raise funds for scholarship funding for the families of fallen and disabled military service members and first responders.
“I am thrilled to have my lifestyle golfing sunglass and apparel company Birdi, to be a part of this event benefiting Folds of Honor,” says LeVox. “I have respected Lt. Col Dan Rooney for many years and to be alongside him to help support the many military service members is truly an honor. I have deep respect for our armed forces and am extremely grateful for all the hard work and dedication. I am excited as well to be partnering with Hard Rock as our presenting sponsor. Thankful to have their support as we collectively join forces to acknowledge the great men and women who fight for our country.”
“I’ve known Gary for 15 years. Beyond Rascal Flatts being my all-time favorite band, getting to know him personally over the years has been truly special. Our values are aligned—God, country, and a belief in doing what’s right. It’s an honor to call him a friend, and we’re blessed to have him joining us in this mission,” shares Rooney, Folds of Honor CEO and Founder. “Coming together with Gary LeVox to honor God and stand behind our military and first responder families is a life-changing partnership. We’re incredibly grateful to have Birdi and Hard Rock step up alongside us to support these heroic families.”
“Hard Rock is deeply proud to support the men and women who serve and sacrifice for our country, in conjunction with the incredible work of Folds of Honor,” says Keith Sheldon, President of Entertainment and Brand at Hard Rock International. “Uplifting communities has always been at the heart of who we are as a brand for over five decades, and it is a privilege to carry that legacy forward in honor of our military families during this milestone 250th anniversary year.”
