Horizon Initiative 'Not On My Watch' Golf Marathon & Evening Reception
Friday, June 29th, 2012 at The Hershey Links
What is a golf 'half' marathon?
This year's golf event will include an afternoon round only. We will tee off in teams of three. On each hole, you will hit and play two balls until you make the hole or have 2 over par, counting as two holes played. The marathon format, when compared to a traditional tournament, allows for faster speed of play and is more profitable and enjoyable, catering to golfers of all skill levels.
What is the schedule for the day?
- Registration & Grill Station @ 12PM
- Shotgun start @ 1PM
- Cocktails & light hors d'oeuvres served @ 6PM
- Heavy hors d'oeuvres served @ 7PM
- Ongoing silent auction. Live auction to follow.
What will be provided?
Lunch off the grill, snacks, water, and heavy hors d'oeuvres will be provided.
Will there be prizes?
Prizes will be awarded to five contest hole winners, high and low scoring individuals & teams, and highest fundraising individuals & teams.
What am I committing to as a golfer?
- Give the day to come out and play.

- Set a goal to raise additional sponsorships for a total of $1,000. The suggested goal for each team is $3,000.

How difficult is it to raise money through sponsorships?
Once registered, we will provide you with fundraising information, tools and templates for raising sponsorships.
