Some pics from Ryan Sheckler’s Celebrity Skins Golf Classic
Here are some of the pics from the other day when I got to go to the Ryan Sheckler Celebrity Skins classic, a pretty cool event where we got to go crazy doing the coolest thing about golf… shanking them left and right with total disregard for the noggins of others.
It was a pretty rad time, check out the photos and everyone have a killer weekend!
Heading out to the Ryan Sheckler Celebrity Skins Golf Classic
Picture this: A helicopter carrying buckeets of golf balls drops them on to the golf course while hovering in the air. Each ball has a number on it designated to the person that purchased it. The first person to scramble out there , find their ball and knock it in to the hole wins $5,000 with all proceeds going to the The Sheckler Foundation.
that’s where I’m heading in just a few, wish me luck on that hole in one!

Help me raise money for a good cause
Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you all know about the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society project that I’ve recently started working with, the Light The Night Walks. The focus is on raising money and awareness to fight Cancer.
We’ll be doing a couple of walks in Griffith Park and Woodland Hills in the coming months. It’s a nice way to come together and see the other people who are involved in the fight against cancer. All the information can be found on My Page. Donate if you can and save the dates (Sunday October, 2nd and November 6th) for our awesome night walks. And if you make it out to one of the walks you should definitely drop in and say hello. See you guys there!
Catch me on LA Talk Radio on Sunday 2pm PT/5pm ET!
This Sunday I’ll be on LA Talk Radio on the Give Back Hollywood show with Todd Michael Krim. It’s a great program that does more than it’s fair share to get celebrities in the Los Angeles area to give back to the community. Check them out by clicking HERE.
Take a listen and check me out this Sunday, then right after that I’m going to the Restore Baseball to Inner Cities event put on by the Dodgers. It’s going to be an awesome weekend, I hope you all make the best of it too!
Peace!
Going to the Dodgers B.B.I. Event this Sunday to help make baseball the #1 activity for inner city kids
The R.B.I Program (Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities) is all about giving youths a great option for what to do when they get out of school. Play some baseball! The RBI Program is one of the largest grassroots MLB programs out there and they do a lot of good for the children in many of the major metropolitan locations.
I’ll be heading out to Dodger Stadium to take part in this year’s event with James Loney and some of the other Dodgers will be throwing a party for the kids of Los Angeles. It’s gonna be great fun. I’ll see what kind of backstage footage I can get you all.
Comic Con Begins in San Diego!
I can’t make it to the San Diego comic Con this year, and sadly I’ll be busy with the Starkey Hearing Foundation in Minneapolis. I’d love to go to SDCC, but you gotta set some time apart for those who need attention.
The Starkey Hearing Foundation does amazing work getting youths care and equipment that helps them hear, which is an incredible gift that not many are lucky enough to get. Everyone have fun down south, though. and I’ll see you all next week. Can’t wait to read all your tweets!
It was a pleasure this weekend to be a part of the Steve Garvey Celebrity Softball Classic
Over the weekend I took part in a Celebrity Softball game put on by Steve Garvey in order to help raise money and awareness for Lou Gherrig’s disease (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). It was a heck of a great day at Pepperdine and there were plenty of people that came out to take part in the event. Steve Garvey, Carl Weathers, Jose Canseco, Pete Rose, Tommy Lasorda and Maury Wills and plenty of other famous-types were on hand to help bring in money to help fight this disease.
Above is a picture with me and the great Pete Rose, gotta love it!
