WHAT IS A GOLF-A-THON? Golfers independently pledge to play a certain number of holes in one day. Every golfer s goal is to generate money for The First Tee of Greater Washington, D.C. by obtaining sponsors who will pledge money for every hole played. Each golfer will create a profile on crowdrise.com/golfathon. SPEED GOLF is the order of the day. Participants will be provided with a mesh bag of golf balls at the beginning of the day. If you lose a ball, just drop a new one and keep it moving! Some players will keep scores for every round and others will not. Scores are not important, however, the rules of golf and golf etiquette should be observed. Junior golfers in The First Tee program who are course ready will participate in the Golf-A-Thon.
