Dear Supporters of the Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic,
Nearly 39 years ago, Ron Peterson and Dan Aberg asked us to partner in their efforts to establish a tennis tournament as a means to raise money for research into childhood cancer by lending financial support. We readily agreed to provide the seed money they were looking for, and soon the Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic was born.
As we now celebrate the 39th Anniversary of this amazing tournament in 2024, it is so reassuring to know that we continue helping these special children and their families affected by childhood cancer. It is not often in life one gets the opportunity to make such a difference.
We are honored to continue as the founding sponsor of the event and thrilled at its continuing success. It has been such a rewarding experience for our family to work with the many volunteers who make this tournament possible and be a part of the continuing enthusiasm they generate in the fight against this horrible disease. It still amazes us that our initial investment in 1986 has turned into more than $7.5 million for the cancer research initiatives at Children’s Minnesota and around the world.
We look forward to continuing our support in the future. Thank you for joining us in helping achieve our goal - to earn the last dollar ever in the fight against children’s cancer.
Game, Set, Cure!
Sincerely, The Jacobson Family Pine Tree Apple Orchard
