Las Vegas, Nev. – PGA Tour player Doug Barron and Proderma will donate sunscreen to local Las Vegas youth and junior golf programs through “Proderma’s Cool Kids Wear Sunscreen” campaign, commensurate with Barron’s performance in the Michelin Championship at Las Vegas, Oct. 13 through 16 at the TPC of Summerlin and The Canyons.
Year-to-date, Barron has competed in 17 tour events via the campaign, pledging donations of more than 10,000 units of Proderma sunscreen to local youth charities and junior golf programs. His best finish came at the EDS Byron Nelson in May, where finished tied for third and donated 1,000 units of sunscreen to the Dallas Chapter of the First Tee Program.
To lend visibility to the campaign, Barron will wear the Cool Kids Wear Sunscreen logo on his headwear, and skin-cancer prevention and related information will be distributed on the tournament grounds. Barron will also make himself available to local television, print and radio media to discuss the Cool Kids Wear Sunscreen campaign, its educational goals and potential impact.
