THE LAST FIREWORKS IN TAHOE? CELEB GOLF EVENT MAY BE MOVED

1.25.1999

          The Celebrity Golf Championship, held at Edgewood Tahoe
     Golf Course in Lake Tahoe, is looking for a new title
     sponsor, according to Schneider & Parsons of the TAHOE DAILY
     TRIBUNE. If a "major sponsor" is not signed, this year's
     event "might be the last time" that it is held in Lake
     Tahoe.  Isuzu, which has sponsored the event for the last
     seven years, "dropped out" after the '98 tournament.  Mel
     Thomas, GM of Caesars Tahoe, the event's host casino, said
     that "discussions with possible sponsors have been
     unsuccessful, but he will continue to search for a sponsor
     to pick up" the $2.5M deal (TAHOE DAILY TRIBUNE, 1/22).
