What is a Golf Marathon?
A golf marathon is an exciting way to dramatically benefit SON-Life Camp & Retreat Center and, at the same time, have more fun on a golf course than you ever dreamed possible. Your goal will be to play 100-plus holes of golf in a single day. Impossible you say?
The average golfer will play 105 holes by the end of the day. We have a few special rules and arrangement that help make this possible:
You will score no worse than three strokes over par on any hole (pick up your ball and go to the next hole).
No stroke and distance penalty on OB shots (stroke only).
We reserve 27 holes at beautiful Orchard Hill Golf Course from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with dinner following at 5:30.
Each golfer has his/her own cart and caddie. All this makes it possible to play nine holes of golf in about an hour.
Each golfer (or team) will be expected to make the best effort to bring in sponsorship. The goal is to raise at least $25 per hole for a total of $2,500 or more. Forms will be provided for you to ask anyone and everyone you know to help you raise money for the Lord's ministry at SON-Life Camp & Retreat Center.
