RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve the donation of two foursomes of golf at the Rio Hondo Golf
Course to the Rancho Los Amigos Foundation's fundraiser raffle to benefit the patients of the
Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center.
Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center is a world-renowned hospital that provides
specialty rehabilitative care to individuals who have suffered from spinal cord injury, stroke,
traumatic brain injury, and other neurological disorders. The Rancho Los Amigos Foundation
raises philanthropic dollars for services and equipment for patients who come from diverse
socio-economic backgrounds; the Foundation's support allows them to receive treatments and
programs that are unfunded by insurance or are otherwise outside of the financial means of the
patient, or not within the traditional Los Angeles County funding practices.
In helping to support this long standing community organization, Council is asked to consider
donating two foursomes of golf to the Rancho Los Amigos Foundation's 30th Annual Charity Golf
Classic which will be held on Monday, August 31, 2020.
A round of golf ranges from $20 for Downey resident youth and seniors on weekdays to $50 per
person on weekends and holidays. The current agreement with the Rio Hondo Golf Course
operator allows the City Council to authorize the City Manager's approval of courtesy play when
the use benefits the City as approved by Council.
