President of Ground Works Land Design, Tony Nasarullah, had founded this special event in memory of his mother's battle with Alzheimers. He talked about collaborating with a PGA Tour star for the event this year as he said via Street Insider:

"It's truly an honor to have a legendary pro golfer join us this year. But beyond the golf and the excitement, this day is about rallying our community to fight back against Alzheimer's. It's personal to me and to so many others whose families are affected."
