Temecula, CA (June 10, 2026) — The Kurt Caselli Foundation is excited to announce the Kurt Caselli Golf Classic, a charity golf tournament benefiting the Foundation’s mission of off-road safety and educational initiatives. The event will take place Wednesday, August 19, 2026, at Bear Mountain Golf Course in Big Bear Lake, California, kicking off Big Bear MX Grand Prix week with a one-of-a-kind experience for riders and supporters.
Hosted in conjunction with the Big Bear MX Grand Prix, the tournament offers participants more than a day on the golf course. After completing the 18-hole tournament, golfers will have the exclusive VIP opportunity to change into their riding gear and become the first riders to experience the 2026 Big Bear MX Grand Prix course before it opens to competitors.
“Opportunities like this don’t come around often,” said Donny Emler Jr., President of The Kurt Caselli Foundation. “The Big Bear MX Grand Prix team approached us with the idea of making the Foundation the beneficiary of this event, and we’re honored to be part of it. It combines two great communities, golfers and riders, while directly supporting programs that help protect the lives of off-road riders.”
“The Kurt Caselli Foundation was super helpful last year as we branched out into our first off-road event,” said Aaron Cooke of Big Bear MX Grand Prix. “Course markings, flags, and general knowledge all played a part in keeping our event and competitors safe. We are excited to offer a special “FIRST LOOK PRACTICE SESSION” for all those who participate in this year’s Golf Tournament. There are some big changes this year and we can’t wait to show everyone.”
Tournament registration includes 18 holes of golf, lunch, tournament contests, awards and post-golf VIP access to the Big Bear MX Grand Prix track. The event is limited to 60 golfers, or 15 teams.
