Format

This year we're shaking things up a bit! You get to choose your format!

For those golfers who still have their eye on the coveted Gorham silver-plated traveling ice bucket trophy, we'll have the Shamble format with the Calloway Scoring System. (Foursomes select the best drive, then play their own ball and maintain their own score.) Trophies will be awarded to the Low Gross – Men, Low Gross – Women, and Low Net individual.

For those golfers who are looking for something a little more laid back or may be new to golf, we'll have the Scramble format. (Foursomes select the best drive, then everyone hits from that spot and repeat for a team score on each hole.) Prizes will be awarded to the First Place, Second Place and Third Place teams. The key to winning may be how well you take advantage of the on-course contests. So make sure to bring some extra cash!

Golf includes:

  • 18-holes
  • Golf Cart rental
  • Lunch
  • Post-Play Party
  • Patio Grill Out
