Our Promise Concert on the Green

- Date: Monday, June 29th, 2009
- Time: 7:00pm
- Location: Congressional Country Club (in Maryland)

Our Promise was created to support American military families in their time of need. As a result, for this event, Our Promise has selected three dynamic charities that need our support: The Tiger Woods Foundation, No Greater Sacrifice and the Paralyzed Veterans of America.

Concert on the Green kicks off an exciting week of activities during the AT&T PGA golf tournament. Hosted by Tiger Woods, this tournament welcomes 120 of the finest golf professionals to our Club. It is anticipated that many of the professional golfers, Members of Congress and other VIPs will be attending this dinner.

In addition, Tiger Woods has agreed to give remarks about his charity and meet many of our guests. Entertainment will be provided featuring Las Vegas entertainer-of-the-year, Clint Holmes, the Billy Joel Band and piano prodigy, Ethan Bortnick. You may have seen Ethan – he was selected by Jay Leno as one of his last Tonight Show guests! And straight from Nashville, Margaret Durante has agreed to join the evening’s festivities. I’m sure you won’t want to miss this exciting evening!

For tickets, or if you or your company would like to be a sponsor of Concert on the Green, please contact the J Street Group at (202) 337-3876 for more details.
