easy!
Text-to-Give
A great way to raise additional funds!
1. Each participant purchases a golf ball (or multiple) for a certain fee
2. All golf balls are then brought into a helicopter (or carried by a drone)
3. Helicopter / drone drops the golf balls over a hole
4. Whoever has the golf ball that is closest to the whole wins a portion of the
pot!
Helicopter Drop
Use these challenges to add more competition to your event:
1. Longest Drive - members pay to enter...longest drive on specified hole wins
2. Closest to the Pin - members pay to enter...closest ball to the pin wins
(typically on a par three hole)
