For the second year in a row, Toyota served as the title sponsor for the Morrison Golf Classic, an annual golf tournament and White Party held at Falmouth Country Club in Cape Cod, Mass. Started by Boston-based couple George and Janet Morrison, the event offers attendees the opportunity to have fun and support a good cause. The Classic was held on August 23-24 and raised money for the Foundation for African Relief. Toyota displayed three of their vehicles including a Toyota Camry XSE that attendees could test-drive. Alva Adams-Mason, Toyota’s National Manager of African-American Business Strategy, delivered a speech about Toyota’s commitment to the African-American community. There was also a Twilight Film Screening, which was sponsored by the Roxbury International Film Festival and the United States Golf Association as well as a golf clinic taught by professional golfer Will Lowery from the Golf Channel’s reality show Big Break. The afternoon’s White Party luncheon featured live music by Leon Beal and food by John L. Reed of Zion Union Heritage Museum. Other sponsors included the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce, U.S. Trust Bank of America Private Wealth Management, Brittney M. Walker of GypsyJaunt.com, SékouWrites of SimplyRides.com, Xante Cognac, hair stylist Diane Da Costa, Banner Biz Magazine, the Bay State Banner, Affluent Magazine and BlackFilm.com.
