The event will be a scramble with foursomes of golfers starting off at holes throughout the course and will include a continental breakfast, grilled lunch, snacks and beverages along the course, a team photo with the Parkland Trojan and gift bag.
There will be a basket raffle and Pot-of-Gold contest and prizes awarded to first-, second- and third-place teams, as well as, prizes awarded for the longest drive, straightest drive, closest to the pin and a Krause Toyota vehicle at the hole-in-one.
Entry fee for individuals is $185 and $740 for a foursome.
Various business sponsorships are available starting at $150.
