56th Annual Memorial Golf Tournament

Good Morning Sacramento Unit, 

I want to thank all those who have signed up for the tournament and as sponsors, we really appreciate the support!  For those who have not signed up, please take advantage of the early sign up discount.  

We still have a few sponsorship opportunities available. Hole sponsorship is only $150 and a great way to set up a table with your products and services, and chat with the golfers as they play your sponsored hole. We encourage hole sponsors to be present and make the hole interactive. We will have Diamond Girls Promotions helping with registration process as well as raffle tickets, mulligan tickets etc. A few local breweries have shown interest and we hope to secure their sponsorship in the coming weeks. It will be a day of good times, good folks, good food and drink and probably more bad golf than good...but a bad day golfing is better than a good day working!
