This nine-hole captain and crew tournament on Saturday, Aug. 20, is open to the public. There will be two shotgun starts – 9 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. – with registration at 8 and 11 a.m.; lunch will be served between 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. for both sessions.
Par for nine holes at The Ridge is 35 and yardage from the yellow tees is 2,725 yards. There are two par 5s: hole 3 (460 yards from the yellow tee) and hole 9 (445 yards).
Your $100 entry fee includes breakfast, lunch, greens fee, cart, raffles and prizes. You can also sponsor a Veteran’s round for $100.
