“Skn in the Game” CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED GLOBALLY TO COMBAT SKIN CANER

Join your fellow golfers in this critical fight

BY CHRISTINE LOOMIS

What you don’t know can kill you.

At no time is that truer than when you’re talking about skin cancer, the most prevalent cancer in the world— and the one with the fewest organizations and accessible resources behind it.

One group is on a mission to change that, and education, technology and science-based information are the tools they’re wielding.

Skn ue is a nonprofit approval is nearing completion working with a host of well-known partners to change dire statistics related to skin cancer—a cancer that’s particularly relevant in the golf industry given that day in and day out PGA and LPGA Tour pros play the game outdoors and often under harsh sun, as do many golfing amateurs and weekend warrior across the globe.

Fact: Full sun is not the only danger. Being outdoors on a cloudy day without proper protection is equally high risk for skin cancer.

Not only is skin cancer the most prevalent cancer, it’s also increasing. In 2016 one person died every 59 minutes of skin cancer; today, that number is two people each hour, yet skin cancer is the most curable of all cancers. So why aren’t more of these deaths being prevented?

16

\\

FLORIDAGOLFINFO.COM

Dan Mechem, chairman and co-founder of SknVue, believes it comes down in large part to education and access to meaningful resources and tools, and that’s exactly what Mechem and co-founder and CEO Randy Wyant plan to put directly into the hands of people everywhere.

Although they’re focusing first on domestic outreach, the goal from the start has been to go global, something they say no other organization related to skin cancer has done. They’ve already partnered with the LPGA, and a cadre of industry veterans sit on SknVue’s board, including Dottie Pepper, Nancy Lopez, Juli Inkster, Helen Alfredsson, Andy North and Randy Jones. The organization has also garnered support from skin-cancer survivors, including Charles S. Mechem, Jr., former commissioner of the LPGA and Dan’s father.

Eventually the plan is to connect with partners on the European and Asian tours, among others.

“We’ll be reaching out to a broad mosaic of partners,” Dan Mechem says. “But we’re putting our domestic program into place first.”

The group has already launched its first campaign, Skn in the Game, which aims to get the message out about the danger of skin cancer and how to prevent it. “Skn in the Game is an immediate, urgent global call-to-action campaign for everyone to pay attention to their skin wellness,” Wyant says.

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, the perfect time to launch a new fundraising and awareness effort they’re calling, A Dollar A Day

In May. Mechem hopes everyone will give at least $31 (just one dollar a day), which will put free skincancer apps in the hands of five people. Donations of $50 to $500 help provide services for those who can’t afford them, from a telemedicine consult with a skin-cancer specialist to a complete skin-cancer screening and more.

This is just the start. It’s too early to talk specifics about future initiatives, but they’ll collectively push to get solid information and cutting-edge technology for skin-cancer detection into the hands of individuals. Mechem and Wyant want to empower golfers and others by providing them with the tools they need to direct their own well-being.

One element of SknVue’s forthcoming program is something they’re calling Skn Stories, featuring golf pros and others telling their personal and powerful stories about skin cancer. The organization is working on social media, videos, podcasts and marketing programs to promote these efforts. Mechem is particularly excited about these stories, which he believes can be transformative for the audience. Maybe that’s because for him, skin cancer is very personal.

In 2020 his best friend died of the disease, very quickly; he had never even been to see a dermatologist. And his father had several surgeries to remove cancerous cells, which fortunately were caught early. Additionally, Mechem says, “It turns out a lot of first responders from 9/11 have skin cancer from various chemicals they were exposed to.

Some have already died and some are dying now.”

FLORIDAGOLFINFO.COM

Skin cancer is insidious but knowledge can halt its advance. Wyant, who has been in the healthcare industry for decades, points to examples of critical facts many people don’t know. “Some sunscreens have chemicals in them that actually damage your skin,” he says. “Some people think you get benefits from tanning beds and they won’t harm you—not true. There are diagnostic tools used by doctors in other countries that aren’t widely used here because of our fee-based system, meaning doctors don’t get reimbursed for using them so they don’t.”

The good news is that technology, programs and resources exist that everyday people can use to protect themselves from skin cancer and the folks at SknVue want them to be available in one easy, accessible place. How exactly that rolls out will be revealed over the coming months but think of it as a survival kit loaded with powerful but simple tools that can keep you from becoming a statistic in this very treatable disease, tools to ultimately turn the tide on skin cancer’s deadly advance.

Mechem doesn’t mince words. Our goal with this Dollar a Day in May campaign is to reach out to people and say, “Donate. You can help us save lives.” Over the long term, he says, “We believe we can—and we will—save thousands of lives with this organization and this campaign.”

Once you step onto The Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club’s breathtaking resort and manicured grounds, you will never want to leave.

The resort’s five golf courses—The Copperhead, Island, North, South and Fox Squirrel—offer challenging, surprising and rewarding courses veterans and novices alike will appreciate.

The Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club

The Copperhead 15th Hole

St. Pete Pier

If you’re looking to play on a gorgeous island (who isn’t?), the Vinoy Golf Course, located on Snell Island, was re-designed by renowned course architect, Ron Garl, and put back into play in 1992.

Conditions for play are ideal year-round, with cool Gulf breezes in summertime and a perfect, warm escape in the winter.

Take it up a notch and try a round at Dunedin Golf Club. Former home of the PGA of America, this 18-hole course was designed by world renowned golf course architect Donald Ross. The facility went through a major restoration with the rebuilding of greens, tees and bunkers in 2006 through 2007, which has restored the course to nearly the same as when Ross originally brought it to life.

After a day on the golf course, head over to the all-new St. Pete Pier, a beautiful 26-acre waterfront oasis surrounded by the sparkling blue waters of Tampa Bay. Grab a tasty bite and an ice-cold drink at Doc Ford’s Rum Bar and Grill, serving up authentic Florida cuisine. Peruse shops and artist galleries or take a relaxing walk along the 3,000 feet of walkways. Kick back in a colorful Adirondack chair as you watch the people go by or opt for a rooftop view at Pier Teaki.

Come discover the newly expanded Clearwater Marine Aquarium offering adventure for the whole family. From Winter the dolphin’s brand-new home with an underwater viewing area to a specially designated area for rescue animals, you’ll feel totally immersed in a new, fascinating world. With five times more space for guests, you can stay safe as you explore.

Plus, 35 miles of sugar white sand beaches are here for you to enjoy. Unwind in the warm sun, stick your toes in the soft sand, and take in a fiery sunset to top off your day. Whether you plan to visit for one night or a few days, there are endless hotels, vacation rentals and renovated timeless landmarks to make your home away from home.

From world-renowned golf courses to world class beaches, unbeatable dining to delicious craft cocktails, you can’t go wrong in St. Pete/Clearwater. Discover it all at VisitStPeteClearwater.com.

The Copperhead’s elevation tests the best players in the world each year. The 7,340-yard, par-71 brute, designed by the imaginative architect Lawrence Packard, is one of the PGA Tour’s favorite stops.

Paul Azinger, a 12-time PGA Tour winner, called it the best course the PGA Tour plays. The Copperhead meanders through beautiful trees and landscaping with water strategically placed to test golfers of all levels. Innisbrook’s other courses offer an enjoyable challenge as well.

The 7,310-yard, par-72 Island Course, in particular, can prove every bit as tough as the Copperhead.

GREAT GOLF AWAITS IN

Daytona Beach

Daytona Beach, long one of Florida’s most popular vacation spots, has continued its emergence as a destination of choice for group leaders in search of great golf and good times off the course.

The “World’s Most Famous Beach” strikes the perfect balance between unforgettable golf and the reality that the fun is just beginning when the final putt drops each day.

As the home of nearly 20 courses, including the acclaimed Jones and Hills layouts at LPGA International and a pair of Donald Ross designs, Daytona Beach is a destination capable of meeting the needs of every golf group.

The Jones and Hills courses have tested LPGA legends such as Annika Sorenstam and Karrie Webb, and the South Course at Daytona Beach Golf Club, a Ross layout, once hosted a famed match featuring Ben Hogan, Sam Snead and yron elson.

While Daytona Beach has deep ties to golf ’s rich history, contemporary layouts like Victoria Hills, an unforgettable Ron Garl design that has been ranked among Florida’s top 20 public courses, and De ary olf lub, which has served as a .S. pen ualifying site, only add to the area’s appeal.

STAY-AND-PLAY Make no mistake, Daytona Beach delivers great golf but where a group stays matters, too.

Daytona Beach welcomes visitors year-round and the rooms – ranging from oceanfront resorts to familiar national brands to independent boutique properties – that host family beach vacations during the summer months are perfect for golfers throughout the rest of the year.

Finish With a Flourish: Daytona Beach’s Top 5 18th Holes As you daydream about your next golf trip, here are five of Daytona Beach’s premier finishing holes: 1 With water running along the entire left side, both the tee shot and approach are nervy on the closing hole at LPGA’s Jones Course, a 388-yard (all distances from white tees) par 4.

2 Not to be outdone, the par 4 18th on LPGA’s Hills Course presents an even more significant challenge. The dogleg left plays 374 yards and the tee shot needs to favor the right-center of the fairway, lest players run the risk of having their path to the green blocked by pine trees.

3 DeBary Golf Club’s closing hole is a dogleg right par 4 that plays 401 yards, and a tree-lined fairway demands an accurate drive. The day’s final approach is to a green with sand and water standing guard on the right side, limiting your margin for error.

FLORIDAGOLFINFO.COM

4 Cypress Head is one of the premier municipal courses in Florida and No. 18, a 466-yard par 5, is one of the reasons why. The narrow fairway is framed by a sprawling waste bunker on the right and mounding on the left.

It’s an excellent finish on a course that delivers tremendous value.

5 If you like a dramatic conclusion, the Club at Venetian Bay is calling your name. A 391-yard par 4, the 18th hole features water running from tee to green on the left and the primary landing area in the fairway has bunkers on both sides. Venetian Bay’s 18th demands you be at your best, helping make it one of the area’s most memorable.
