Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers, as well as the Sportsmanship Award (last place). A highlight of the event is the Public Safety Award given to the lowest-scoring team comprised of mostly first responders (police, fire, EMS, dispatch, etc.) This year’s hole-in-one prize is a new motorcycle from Wilkins Harley Davidson.
Players and teams may register online, and organizers are still looking for sponsors to help with prize donations and hole sponsorships. Sponsorships are available at a variety of levels from $100 to $1,000. Prize donations will be included in a silent auction.
There are also opportunities for non-golfers to volunteer with tasks such as assisting with the putting contest, spotting for holes-in-one on a prize hole, selling mulligans and raffle tickets. No previous experience is necessary.
More information about the event, including registration and sponsorships, is online on the Podgwaite Memorial Golf Tournament website. Anyone unable to attend but wishing to support the fundraiser can make a donation on the registration site as well.
Direct any questions to event coordinator Chris Golder at 802-793-0255. Those wishing to volunteer should contact Golder as well.
