CELEBS WILL BE PLAYIN' A ROUND
Toronto's high rollers will be hitting the links at the Taboo Resort, Golf and Conference Centre Sept.8 to raise funds for the Toronto film festival. The festival announced yesterday that Taboo, the Gravenhurst resort that is Mike Weir's official "home" club, is now taking reservations for a maximum of 18 foursomes at $6,000 a group for the first Taboo Celebrity Gold Classic. All revenues raised during the day are going to the festival.
The event is to follow the Bell Canadian Open, the PGA tournament taking place for Sept. 4-7 at the Hamilton Golf and Country Club. Taboo has not pinned down any of the pros yet as celebrity guests, but Canadian musicians Tom Cochrane and two members of The Tragically Hip are confirmed for the Gold Classic.
Cochrane and the Hip members also plan to join the Taboo house band that night and present an exclusive concert just for the 18 foursomes.
Reservations for the Taboo event can be made through Nigel Hollidge, director of golf operations for the resort (705-646-5800 or toll-free at 1-866-9TABOO9
