Gullikson Foundation’s Eighth Annual Swingtime Event held in Naples, Florida, on November 18-19, 2006. Each year, the Tim and Tom Gullikson Foundation presents the award to a brain tumor patient, caregiver, individual or corporation that gives hope to others by dealing with the illness with the same fighting spirit and positive attitude that tennis pro and coach Tim Gullikson exhibited in his battle, to which he succumbed in 1996. The mission of the Tim and Tom Gullikson Foundation is to help brain tumor patients and their families manage the physical, emotional and social challenges presented by the illness.
