The annual Pirate Golf Tournament is coming up June 4 at Cedars at Dungeness where golfers will have the opportunity to raise money for Peninsula College athletic scholarships – and possibly win a car.
The tournament, a 4-person scramble, will feature a shotgun start at 9 a.m. Hole-in-one prizes this year include a car from Wilder Auto and $10,000 in cash.
“We just handed out championship rings to the women’s soccer team, and our other three teams were right on the brink of winning NWAC titles themselves,” said Rick Ross, associate dean for athletics and student life. “All of that success can be directly tied to our fund raising effort for athletic scholarships. Our coaches recruit the best local players who are willing to stay home and the best players they can find from across the world. We’re the smallest community college in the NWAC and one of the most powerful, in part, because our community supports us.”
“There are fund raising tournaments almost every weekend in the spring,” Ross added, “but this is part of our life blood. We truly hope people will come out and continue to support it. Coach Rollman and the staff at Cedars work very hard to make it a good time for all.”
Participants can register for the basic package at $100 or the player package that includes two mulligans, and tickets for “putt for wine” and a drawing for $125. Lunch is also provided. To register, participants can go to gopcpirates.com under community events.
Sponsorships are still available. For more information, contact tournament director Donald Rollman at drollman@pencol.edu.
