The Greater Fort Myers and SanCap Chamber of Commerce announces sponsorship opportunities and open registration for its annual Golf Classic, taking place Friday, Nov. 13, at The Dunes Golf & Tennis Club, 949 Sand Castle Rd. on Sanibel Island.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis highly anticipated event invites community members, business leaders, and golf enthusiasts to enjoy a day filled with friendly competition, networking, and good times in the great outdoors,\u201d said John Lai, chamber president and chief executive officer. \u201cThe tournament provides an excellent way to connect with fellow professionals while supporting the chamber\u2019s mission of empowering local businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n
Check-in will begin at 7:30 a.m., followed by a shotgun start at 9 a.m. Breakfast will be provided at check-in, and the day will conclude with an awards luncheon and closing ceremony.<\/p>\n
Registration is now open at $400 for individual golfers and $1,500 for a foursome team, which includes a tee sign on the course. Each registration includes breakfast and lunch, beverages throughout the day, a swag bag, and a commemorative tee sign.<\/p>\n
Participants also have the opportunity to buy into the Helicopter Ball Drop, thanks to a donation from the Lee County Sherriff\u2019s Office. Ball prices start at $10 for one ball and are available on a sliding scale up to $4 per ball for 100 balls. A ball that lands in the hole or closest to the hole takes the grand prize.<\/p>\n
Winners can choose to donate 50% of their winnings to the Greater Fort Myers Chamber Foundation. Proceeds from raffles and other prizes also will benefit the foundation. <\/p>\n
