— Annual event to be held at Robinson Ranch Golf Club; this year’s tournament also includes Texas hold ‘em poker —
Los Angeles CA, March 13, 2017 — A date has been set for the 2017 Recording Industry Golf Tournament™ (RIGT), which will be held Monday, June 5, 2017, at Robinson Ranch Golf Club in Santa Clarita, CA, with the shotgun start at 12:00 noon. This year’s event is enhanced with the addition on a Texas hold ‘em poker tournament, beginning at 2:00 p.m. and ending at the close of the golf tournament.
The RIGT is again being organized by seasoned event producer Karen Dunn of KMD Productions, LLC and will support the music program at A Place Called Home, a dynamic community center and safe haven in South Central Los Angeles where underserved youth 8-21 years old are empowered to take ownership of the quality and direction of their lives through programs in education, arts, and well-being. Recording veterans Ed Cherney and Al Schmitt will return as Honorary Co-Chairs for the afternoon’s festivities. 
Dunn is now accepting participation entries, whether as sponsors, golfers or both. In addition to the 18 holes of pristine golfing, the day will include a $1 million shoot-out opportunity, a hole-in-one Harley Davidson motorcycle giveaway, great food, a reception and awards dinner, and more. Dunn and the industry veteran Rose Mann-Cherney will be driving the “world famous tequila cart” to make sure all of the day’s participants are playing their best.
Sponsors will include JBL Professional, Lurssen Mastering, Audio-Technica, Slate Digital, Clyne Media, NAMM, the Audio Engineering Society (AES), IK Multimedia, United Recording Studios, The Recording Studio Insurance Program, David Angress Consulting and Bob Hodas Acoustic Analysis, with more being added by the week.
