The Children’s Museum of Wilmington Hosts 15th Annual Fore the Children Golf Tournament this May

Wilmington, NC — April 22, 2026 — The Children's Museum of Wilmington is excited to be teeing off once again at their sold out 15th Annual Fore the Children Golf Tournament on Monday, May 11th. Golfers will get the chance to play a full round of golf at the beautiful and historic Cape Fear Country Club and enjoy several exclusive offerings throughout the day such as special tournament offerings, a silent auction, and more!
“As one of our largest fundraising events, Fore the Children has a direct and lasting impact on our ability to serve families in our region," said Patti Erkes, Director of Development at the Children's Museum of Wilmington. "Every sponsorship and every player helps sustain a Museum that is dedicated to learning through play, especially for children who may not otherwise have access to these kinds of experiences. The fact that Fore the Children is sold out is a reflection of a community that consistently shows up for its children. Because of this support, we’re able to keep creating a space where kids can learn, imagine, and grow through play.”
All proceeds from Fore the Children will benefit The Children’s Museum of Wilmington, which is dedicated to providing creative, educational, and inspiring experiences for children 0-10 years. For more information on how you can support the Museum, please visit our website at www.playwilmington.org.
Fore the Children is presented by Live Oak Bank and the Children’s Museum of Wilmington, with support from GE Aerospace, Mustaches for Kids - Wilmington, Customs Advisory Services, and EmergeOrtho. We thank all of our sponsors for their continued support of the Museum and its mission.
