Cameron will play 72 holes on Monday as part of the Longest Day Challenge - a nationwide event.
The passing of friend and fellow professional Stephen Aerts to melanoma at age 51 is Cameron's inspiration.
He will be joined by fellow professionals Michael MacGregor (Cobram Barooga Golf Club) and Anthony Sanders (Numurkah Golf Club) to form the Pro's from the Murray and aims to raise $10,000 for cancer prevention and research.

People can make donations by visiting the Pros from the Murray page on The Cancer Council Longest Day website.
Meanwhile, Howlong will stage its inaugural Golden Shoe Challenge on Sunday, December 21.
The nine-hole medley stableford event, with shotgun starts on both nines, commences at 7am, 9.30am, 12pm, 2.30pm and 5pm.
Players can play 18 holes, but only the same nine once.
Major prizes will be awarded to the overall winners from the front and back nine, with more up for grabs for winners from each shotgun and an overall mystery six-hole event for each nine.
Entry forms can be found on the Howlong Golf Resort website or by contacting Tim Cameron at pro@howlonggolf.com.au.
Cost is $10 for members and $15 for visitors, with all players requiring a current Golf Australia handicap.
