What is the Classic?
The Paul Dunn Classic honors the legacy of a man whose life was cut far too short because of a disease called ALS. At just 28 years old Paul learned he had an illness with no known cause or cure and only 2 to 5 years to live. He knew the only way to change that is with steadfast research and awareness. Paul asked his closest friends to help him and so, starting a heartfelt and annual tradition, their first golf tournament to help fund ALS research began in 2001.

What is ALS?
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as
Lou Gehrig's Disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative
disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal
cord. Although the cause of ALS is not completely understood, the recent years have brought a wealth of new scientific understanding regarding the physiology of this
disease.

Who Benefits?
The J. Thomas May Center for ALS Research at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences provides a multitude of pathways to find better treatments and hopefully
someday a cure for ALS. Your generous support to the Paul Dunn Classic will help fund these cutting edge technologies and therapies in managing ALS. For more information about the ALS program at UAMS, please contact Donna Smith at (501)526-4350 or dnsmith@uams.edu.

Prizes?
Prize categories include closest to the pin, longest drive, hole-in-one and other challenge activities. Awards will be presented immediately after the tournament.
