This Invitational only Celebrity and Player match up Sponsors VIP Cocktail Reception (consisting of seasoned Executives, Venture Capitalist, Financiers, Sponsors and Entrepreneurs) has come together for one reason to show their philanthropic support for Autism.

The excitement surrounding the Autism Speaks Annual Golf Classic will reach a feverish pitch as the competitive spirit of golfers rises to secure their celebrity match ups. Celebrities and players will enjoy cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and photo-ops. The evening will be an early one though so celebrities and players both can be ready for a fresh shotgun start in the morning at the magnificent Mountain Gate Country Club in Bel Air.

Following the match, golfers are invited to a step and repeat celebrity photo session, and cocktail reception featuring an open bar and silent auction.
