Blaine, Minn. (August 8, 2019) -- The Herb Brooks Foundation’s (HBF) annual Celebrity Golf Classic will be held on Monday, August 12 at the Victory Links golf course at the National Sports Center in Blaine.

The event is the major annual fund-raising event for the HBF, and is instrumental in providing financial resources to help the Foundation advance its mission to grow the game of hockey, especially among young athletes who would not otherwise have access to coaching, equipment and ice time.

The Herb Brooks Youth Hockey Hall of Fame Award will be presented to Matt Olson, from Isanti, Minn. Olson, 23, suffered a spinal-cord injury three years ago that ended his playing career and confined him to a wheelchair.
