For the third consecutive year The Cliffs at Walnut Cove will host the 4th annual No Barriers USA Outdoor Classic Golf Tournament and Luncheon featuring keynote speaker Bob Woodruff on Tuesday, August 30.

"No Barriers is grateful to be back in Asheville working in partnership with our friends at The Cliffs, to raise money and awareness to support No Barriers Warriors.  The Cliffs has been a wonderful partner, both in creating an inspirational and meaningful program for their members, and in raising funds to support the cost-free programs of No Barriers Warriors.  We change lives - but we cannot do it without the support of communities and partners like the ones we have at Walnut Cove," said Cindy Bean, Chief Development Officer for No Barriers USA.  "Our program for veterans with disabilities, No Barriers Warriors, is dedicated to creating transformational programs that help people rediscover their potential and purpose in life.  No Barriers Warriors serves over 200 veterans with disabilities each year, but also turn away hundreds more due to lack of funding.  It's only through the generosity of others that we can serve more.” 

The Cliffs at Walnut Cove will host the No Barriers Golf Tournament, which combines a golf tournament and keynote luncheon. Veterans and keynote speaker Bob Woodruff will attend this year’s luncheon. While reporting on U.S. and Iraqi security forces for ABC’s “World News Tonight,” on Jan. 29, 2006, Bob was seriously injured by a roadside bomb that struck his vehicle near Taji, Iraq. 

The No Barriers Golf Classic is open to the public and is still accepting registration for four-person teams. A foursome is available at a $1,600 minimum donation and includes tickets to the keynote luncheon. The event is only open to those who register for the tournament.
