What an Opportunity to Make a Difference
We need golfers and teams who will raise pledges from friends, families, and businesses. The golfer and teams will ask for pledges for each hole that they play (36 holes total). There is no fee for the golfers to play, however, we ask all individual golfers to commit to raising at least $750 and teams to commit to raising $1,500.
Nervous about having to fundraise? No need to worry, we'll provide you with all of the tools that you will need to be successful! We'll even provide you with a website and templates to fund-raise and share!
On June 18, 2018 we will host our 3rd Annual Golf Marathon. This is going to be an exciting day of golf for you at the newly renovated Country Club of Orlando. Over the course of the day, players will play 36 holes of championship golf, be treated to food and drink, and raise money for a great cause. There is NO COST to becoming a golfer, however, it is expected that you raise a minimum of $750 dollars as an individual or $1,500 as a team by soliciting sponsors to support your efforts.
What Am I raising Money For?
All money that is raised with your pledges will support The First Tee of Central Florida. The First Tee of Central Florida is a chapter of The First Tee, a youth development organization that uses the game of golf as the context to teach young people core values, life skills and healthy habits. The First Tee of Central Florida helps shape the lives of kids and teens from all walks of life by introducing them to values inherent in the game of golf. Values like integrity, respect and perseverance. You can find The First Tee junior golf and life skills programs on golf courses, in elementary schools and at other youth development organizations.
THE GOLF
One of the state’s oldest clubs, the Country Club of Orlando recently went through a renovation, aimed to give the course’s greens more of a ‘Donald Ross-feel’, while also making subtle alterations to other features on the course. The course will be sure to provide a great day of golf
