Adeara 2025 Golf Tournament: Recap

June 12, 2025

We were thrilled to welcome a sold-out group of registrants going into our second annual Adeara Golf Tournament! What followed was a day full of fun, connection, and purpose—and we’re so excited to share the highlights with you.

Held once again at the stunning The Ranch Golf & Country Club, our 2025 tournament was surrounded by natural beauty—rolling fairways, beautiful ponds, and towering trees that made for a truly scenic round of golf.

From the start, the energy was contagious. Golfers and sponsors alike brought such positivity to the day. Spirits were high, and for those who braved last year’s rainy weather, the warmer temperature this year was a welcomed gift—despite the smoky skies.

Our entire Adeara team felt honoured and grateful to be part of this event again—watching supporters come together to champion addiction recovery in our community is something that never gets old.

Thank You to Our Title Sponsor

A huge thank you to Aspire Investments and Insurance for being our Title Sponsor once again this year. Your partnership means a great deal to us, and this tournament wouldn’t have been the same without your continued support.

Each golfer who showed up made a difference. Thank you for giving your time to support the women and children at Adeara Recovery Centre. As we visited teams throughout the course, we saw people genuinely enjoying the game, connecting with friends, and having fun at each of the activity holes—all while supporting a meaningful cause. What more could you ask for?

At the Men’s Longest Drive, hot coffee from The Wall Coffee Roasters kept golfers energized, with recovery coffee available to purchase in support of Adeara. Special thanks to Monarch Insurance Brokers for their presence and Myshak Group for engaging golfers at the putting green.

Although no one claimed the $10,000 Hole-in-One prize from Horizon Ag & Turf, our dedicated volunteers Ed and Bev were there cheering every swing along the way!

Banquet Dinner

Following the round, golfers gathered in the clubhouse for a delicious steak dinner, generously sponsored by Sorrell Financial. After the meal, we shared a short video highlighting the growing need for addiction recovery and how Adeara is uniquely positioned to respond.

Then, a former Adeara client shared her powerful story of transformation with us. Her courage and vulnerability reminded us all why this event matters. Recovery is possible—even in the most broken places—and it’s your support that helps make those stories of transformation happen.
