STMGC-Golf-Tournament

The St. Moritz Golf Club is the home club on Kulm Golf. Founded in 2002, the club now has around 300 members.
Golfers discovered Kulmpark 125 years ago as a golf landscape that rises far above the small norms of the everyday and is very popular.

For several years now, we have sponsored golf tournaments. This year, it takes place on 6 September 2023.

Open Doors
Architecture for all

Every year at the end of June, Bergell and Engadin open their doors for a weekend.   Everyone is then invited to take a look behind the façades of outstanding buildings from a wide variety of eras and to rediscover countless places.

Inside the buildings, architects and experts provide first-hand information on the background to the buildings. The event is organised by the association Open Doors Engadin – Architektur für alle that helps to share knowledge with the general public about architecture and its importance in the development of our living space.

Lorena Cadalbert
Mountain biker

There’s lots new for Lorena this year. She’s moved up to the U23 category and is competing for Team Fehr Velos. So she can now be spotted in yellow and blue on a Scott bike. The move to the U23s is a big change. The races are much longer and she always has to compete against the elite at national races, meaning a very high level of racing. She’s looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead, though. We are too and wish her all the best – hopp Lorena! You guessed right:

Lorena’s last name is no coincidence! We get to support a family member here (niece!).
Martina Faggi
Athlete

Martina is 16 years old and competes in the girls U18 category. She says of herself: “Athletics are my life.” One goal for this season is to qualify for the long jump at the European Youth Olympic Festival (EYOF). She needs to manage a distance of at least 5.85 m for this. Another of her goals is to finish in the top three at the Swiss championships. She’s now training high jump again and has learned a new technique for the long jump.

Martina’s medium- and long-term goals:
  • meet the European championship requirement for the long jump (2023)
  • qualify for the long jump at the EYOF
  • top three at the Swiss championships
  • make the national squad

Martina is also part of our family (another niece!) and we’re delighted to be able to support her.

EHC St. Moritz

Established in 1918, EHC St. Moritz is one of the oldest ice hockey clubs in the country that still plays in the official Swiss championship.

The club faces great challenges, both financially and in terms of its infrastructure. Coping with the ever-growing demands of the Swiss Ice Hockey Federation is not a sprint, but a marathon.
