"Pure Silk is honored to sponsor the 2013 Pure Silk Team Championship," stated Tom Murray, President & CEO of Perio, Inc." As a sponsor of nine LPGA golfers, we are very excited to expand upon our connection with Women's golf and to support hard working collegiate athletes. The WGCA and the players' willingness to add a Monday charitable event to benefit A Kid Again (supporting children with life threatening illness and their families), is the icing on the cake!"
