The Wise Guys Charity Fund is closing out 2025 with a major announcement: its 35th Annual Men’s Golf Tournament will debut at Peninsula Lakes Golf Club on July 15, 2026, marking a bold new chapter after 34 years at Lookout Point.
A Holiday Reveal with Big Impact
As Niagara enters the festive season, Wise Guys Charity Fund is already looking ahead to summer 2026. The new venue promises upgraded play with 27 renovated holes and a streamlined 54‑foursome shotgun start, a first for this signature event, allowing all golfers to play, dine, and celebrate together throughout the day. The new format creates a more connected, seamless experience for participants
while building on the strong tradition of playing at an elite course that has made the
tournament one of Niagara’s favourite events every year.
Tradition Meets Transformation
“We’re thrilled to partner with Peninsula Lakes for 2026,” said Doug Smith, Wise Guys
Charity Fund Board Chair. “The work they’ve done to the course is truly breathtaking,
and their team has been incredible to collaborate with. They’re deeply invested as a
community-minded organization and eager to help make this year’s event a great
success. Together, we’re building on more than three decades of tradition and taking
this tournament to new heights.”
Fundraising Milestone in Sight
The Wise Guys Charity Fund anticipates surpassing the $6 million fundraising milestone in 2026, funds that have been reinvested directly into programs, organizations, and initiatives that support people and families across Niagara. The upcoming tournament promises to be one of the most exciting and meaningful events yet, marking not only a new partnership with Peninsula Lakes but also the continued growth of the Wise Guys’ legacy of giving.
Gratitude This Season
Smith emphasized the timing: “December is a season of giving, and we want to give our thanks for the ongoing support and partnerships across Niagara that make our success possible,” said Doug. “Every individual, sponsor, and organization that contributes helps us continue rolling funds back into the community we all care about so deeply. This collaboration with Peninsula Lakes reflects that shared spirit of generosity that defines Niagara.”
