BidFest Golf

 

 

Back by popular demand, the TSC is hosting another great outing for Bidfest Delegates, Guests and Vendors. This will be a four-person scramble, staggered start with the first tee-time at 10:00AM.  

 

This year’s tournament will include a hole-in-one shootout with the target hole as a $15,000 trip for two to St. Andrews, Scotland. There will also be three other opportunities for ancillary prizes from gift cards to Callaway irons, (depending on availability similar prizes may be substituted).

 

We will also be selling Mulligan’s, they may be used at any time except for second chances at hole-in-one contests. All participants will receive a ticket for a 50/50 draw, and an additional ticket for hitting a par 3 green in regulation, (one stroke).

Mulligans

All monies will be applied to awards and prizes.
