Breckenridge Chamber of Commerce’s annual golf tournament on Sept. 28 to raise funds for BHS Class of 2025 scholarships
The Breckenridge Chamber of Commerce’s annual Johnny Bates Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournament will tee off at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 28, at the Breckenridge Country Club.
Funds raised through the tournament’s sponsors and related fundraisers will go toward the Chamber’s scholarships for the Breckenridge High School Class of 2025. Last year, the Chamber presented six $1,000 scholarships.
Entry fees will be $200 per two-person team for the 18-hole scramble. Each team will receive an event golf towel and a complimentary lunch.
Tee times will be at 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., and lunch will be served at noon.
In addition to the 18-hole scramble, there will be door prizes, a longest drive contest, a closest to the pin contest and a ping pong ball draw. Tickets for the ping pong ball raffle cost $5 per ticket, and they are on sale at the Chamber office, 100 E. Elm. This year’s ball raffle is sponsored by Watcha Got Electrical, and the winner will receive a $500 Visa Gift Card.
