The Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am Salutes Our Armed Forces

We will once again pay tribute to America’s military for their service, sacrifice and courage. The “2010 Outback Steakhouse Military Salute” plans to honor our active and retired troops in numerous and various ways including, but not limited to, complimentary, multi-day admission into the tournament. Free Admission is granted to active, guard, reserves, and retirees with proper military Identification. Children under 18 are always admitted free.

In addition to free general admission, the 2010 tournament invites the United States Armed Forces to enjoy this premier Champions Tour event in style. We expanded our hospitality to our military with the unveiling of the inaugural Military Bunker presented by JCI Jones Chemicals, Inc. located on the 18th fairway. The Military Bunker hospitality tent is exclusively reserved for the troops and their families, offering great Champions Tour golf viewing, complimentary Aussie-Tizers by Outback Steakhouse, Anheuser-Busch drafts, and Coca-Cola products.

JCI Jones Chemical, Inc. is an 80-year-old family owned company who has for generations made it their mission to assure that our American Heroes’ service never goes unnoticed or unappreciated. Thanks to JCI Jones Chemicals, Inc. and the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am, our soldiers will be honored while also watching the world’s best golfers.

On Champions Sunday, the tournament will conclude the week-long “Military Salute” with three final tributes. For the first tribute, spectators will be handed yellow ribbons as they enter through admission to wear. The second is a day long commemoration to our Wounded Heroes. James A. Haley VA Hospital’s wounded soldiers will sit in an exclusive patriotically marked section on the 18th green. Each Champions Tour professional will honor these courageous individuals with a salute and hand shake as they leave the green. Once the final putt is made, the 2010 Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am will conclude the “Military Salute” with special presentation by the U.S. Military.

Whether its serving our troops oversees or embracing our families here at home, the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am is always there appreciating and supporting our military.
