Grand Lake Chamber to Host the Greater Grand
Lake Open in July
The Grand Lake Area Chamber of Commerce has released an update of plans for their annual golf tournament fundraiser. The tournament will take place on Monday, July 14th at Shangri-La Golf Club on Monkey Island. The event is being sponsored by Bolt Fiber, a subsidiary of REC-Tec and will get underway with a shotgun start promptly at 1:00pm.
Chamber Executive Director Rusty Fleming said, “This has always been a significant fundraiser for the chamber while, at the same time, being a lot fun, not only for the team participants, but our sponsors, supporters and volunteers as well. Bot Fiber has demonstrated their commitment to the community and their vision of the future with their support. The tournament has been dubbed the Bolt Fiber Greater Grand Lake Open and we’re exploring ways to recognize the winning team on a lake-wide basis as the cream of the crop when it comes to scramble competition.”
Fleming added, “This will give many of our members and participating teams a first-hand look at what has been accomplished at Shangri-La over the past three years in restoring the facility to the glory days level of excellence. We’re excited about the opportunity to host our event there in 2014.”
Participation is available on an individual or team basis at $100.00 per player or at $400.00 for a team sponsorship or $450 for a team and hole sponsorship. The entry fee includes green fees, carts and range balls. Area golfers and businesses are encouraged to recruit their very best possible team to claim bragging rights for the next 12 months. Individual participants will be assigned to teams lacking a full complement of players or used to make up additional teams.

The tournament will be organized into an A and B flight with first and second place prizes awarded in each flight. In addition to the flight winners, hole-in-one opportunities will be provided to win some serious prizes as well as the usual longest drive, closest-to-the-pin and longest putt. But most will walk away winners as a host of door prizes will be handed out during the post tournament festivities.
If golf is not your calling, there are sponsorship opportunities still available.
