2008 Toshiba Classic Seeks Volunteers

Newport Beach, Calif., November 29, 2007- The Toshiba Classic is now seeking volunteers for the 2008 tournament, to be held March 3-9 at Newport Beach Country Club. In it's 11th year, the Toshiba Classic, which benefits Hoag Hospital, is one of the premier sporting events in Orange County and attracts close to 80,000 spectators each year.

Volunteers are an integral part of the Toshiba Classic - each year nearly 1,000 volunteers participate to make the tournament a success. There is something for everyone, from tournament scoring to security.

Volunteers will need to commit to a minimum of two days from March 3 through 11. The cost is $75 for new volunteers, which includes a uniform, food vouchers, admission into the Toshiba Classic for the entire week of the tournament and an extra admission ticket.
