Various contests will be held during play, such as a 3-Pin Casino Hole, a Putting Contest, Long Drive and Closest to Pin for both men and women, and a Hole-in-One contest with a chance to win a new car from Sam Linder Auto Group.
Sign up today - it's not too late! Bring your own foursome, or register individually and be matched up with other local business people.
This is a perfect opportunity to promote your business/organization, network, or thank valued clients while enjoying a beautiful day at the historic Del Monte course, a Pebble Beach Company property.
