WESTFIELD CENTER, OH - July 7, 2005 - More than 40 sponsors help make the Westfield Junior PGA Championship the premier event in junior golf.

In just five years, many local and national companies have aligned their businesses with Westfield Group Foundation, which partners with Westfield Insurance and The PGA of America to conduct the Westfield Junior PGA Championship. Played July 13-16 at Westfield Group Country Club, the Championship is widely recognized as the most tour-like experience for players and attendees alike.

"Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, Westfield Junior PGA Championship spectators can enjoy free admission, covered grandstands and roped fairways," said Westfield Group Foundation Director Jani Davis. "Our hope is that we can expose many young people to the game of golf, which promotes good citizenship, benevolence, competitive spirit and outstanding ethical conduct."

Patrons of Westfield Group Foundation are recognized based on their level of support.
