LOS ANGELES, August 16, 2007 - On August 20, FOX Sports Radio host and two-time Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Champion, James Washington, and AM 570 KLAC Commentator/FOX Sports Net Analyst, Matt Stevens, will host the annual "Fun in the Sun Golf Tournament" located at the Black Gold Golf Course in Yorba Linda, Calif., to benefit Shelter 37 Inc. A non-profit corporation, Shelter 37 was created by Washington for at-risk children in Southern California.
The tournament is open to individuals who make a $190 donation. Familiar faces from the world of professional and college football as well as FOX Sports Radio personalities will also be in attendance.

Washington commented, "I look forward to this fundraiser each year because it raises tremendous awareness about Shelter 37 and its mission to help our communities' disadvantaged youth by improving their future through education and motivation."
Each year, Shelter 37 raises money through special events to fund after school enrichment and education programs. One of the highlights includes the UCLA Football College Experience Program in which more than 5,000 disadvantaged kids are provided with tickets and transportation to a UCLA football game at the Rose Bowl and more than 600 are invited to a football camp with the entire UCLA football coaching staff.
Out of Bounds on FOX with Craig Shemon and James Washington is nationally syndicated by the FOX Sports Radio network and can be heard Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. - noon ET/6 - 9 a.m. PT on nearly 100 stations.
