The tournament entry fee, limited to 120 golfers, will be $75 which will include lunch, cart and greens fees and prizes. A host of sponsorships will be offered, including a Lieutenant Level Sponsorship for $1,000, a Captain Level Sponsorship for $2,000 and a Chief Level Sponsorship for $3,000. Additional sponsorships are available. Prizes will include longest drive and closest-to-the-pin among others.
A brochure, including a registration form and rules package, will be available at golf pro shops, sporting goods stores, YMCAs and other locations in the coming months. A packet and other information may be requested by contacting Jim Spitz at jspitz@tvfd.org.
