Governor’s Cup helps Idaho kids

The  Idaho Governor’s Cup is coming up on Sept. 10-12 in Sun Valley.

South Fork Lodge posted info about ticket and package options, reminding participants and their families that the event is more than a charity tournament involving over 600 participants in fly fishing, shooting, golf and a number of social activites.

The Idaho Governor’s Cup was established in 1974 by then-Governor Cecil Andrus. It is a 501 (c) (3) organization with a mission to help Idaho kids stay in Idaho to pursue their higher education goals.

Governor Otter put his own stamp on the event by deciding to alternate the location between Sun Valley and Coeur d’Alene.

The deadline has passed for entering this year’s event in Sun Valley, but mark your calendars for next year’s Governor’s Cup in Coeur d’Alene, Aug. 25-27, 2016.
