“This event could not happen without the dedication of our volunteers,” said Brittany Jeanis, Tournament Director for the Skechers World Champions Cup supporting Shriners Children’s. “Our dedicated volunteers are the first to welcome fans, the last to leave at the end of the day and the ones who ensure every detail runs smoothly. This program is truly the backbone of tournament week.”
