The event includes 18 holes of golf, use of a golf cart and range balls, two golf contests (senior flight and championship flight). Sponsorship opportunities, ranging from $250 to $1,000, are still available.

Cost to play is $125 each ($500/foursome) and includes a continental breakfast at 7:30 a.m. with a 9 a.m. start time, lunch at the Turn, and open bar from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. A steak dinner and awards presentation conclude the event.
