Appearances include Thayer, Simmons' partner Shannon Tweed, KISS manager Doc McGhee and footage of Pacific University alumni, parents and friends at the event.
The 2010 Legends Golf Classic hosted by Tommy Thayer grossed more than $425,000 for Pacific student-athletes. More than 400 people attended a celebrity auction, dinner and concert, and 185 participated in the golf tournament.
Simmons proved to be a significant moneymaker for the University as the opportunity to play golf with him and McGhee raised $30,000 at the Sunday live auction. The prospect of playing golf with tournament host Thayer fetched $10,000.
