Golden Tee PCC - Salute Friday

Salute Friday Kicks off Golden Tee Weekend!


The biggest night of the Golden Tee Players Charity Championship is always Friday night – and this year we've really amped things up!

Splinter's will be transformed into the center of the Golden Tee universe, and not only will the players be pumped up –

Everyone is welcome to come and experience the excitement for themselves!

You're invited to join the players, the Salute staff, their friends and their supporters. Have a beverage or two and grab something to eat. But mostly be ready to help support an organization that's a true lifeline for vets and their families.

Here's a short video that goes a long way in describing why the Golden Tee players are working so hard for Salute:




But we're not waiting until the evening to get started. This year we're making Friday even bigger! It'll be a full day of real golf, virtual golf, fun and competition!

7:00 p.m. – The PCC Golden Tee Closest-to-the-Pin Contest
Brought to you by the World Championship of Fantasy Football

Friday night closest-to-the-pin tournaments are a tradition at the PCC. Everyone loves to whoop it up at all the action on the big screen, and since this format allows anyone to win, it's always one of the weekend's most popular events.

And this year's title sponsor is upping the stakes by giving the winner a shot at winning $300,000!

The World Championship of Fantasy Football is the premier fantasy football competition in the world. The WCOFF has awarded over $12 million to fantasy football players during the past 8 years, and now they're teaming up with the PCC to help Salute and our veterans.

The winner of the WCOFF CTTP contest will receive one entry into the WCOFF Main Event – a $1,800 value. The WCOFF Main Event draft night is televised on Versus and has become a true media spectacle. To learn more about the WCOFF, just click here http://www.wcofs.com/.

Incredible Technologies is throwing $1,000 in cash into the pot too. So finish in the final four and here's what you'll get:
