Mid-Atlantic Chapter 20th Annual Golf Tournament

Get ready—because this year’s golf event isn’t just another outing. It’s a full‑blown, laugh‑filled, adrenaline‑pumping, absolutely unforgettable day on the course. We’ve hosted great events in the past, but this one is officially being labeled as our most exciting golf experience yet.

Event Details

Date: Friday, September 18th
Location: Tanglewood Manor Golf Club, 653 Scotland Rd, Quarryville, PA 17566
Registration Opens: 7:00 AM
Shotgun Start: 8:00 AM

We’re bringing in three brand‑new elements that will take the day from fun to legendary:

Golf Cannon – Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. There will be a hole where you can launch a golf ball using a cannon. It’s wildly fun and guaranteed to be the shot you talk about for months.
Greenskeeper’s Choice – This hole will have a surprise twist. Expect goofy obstacles, strange tee positions, or maybe a pin placement that keeps things interesting. It’s chaotic, hilarious, and a fan favorite at tournaments everywhere.
Hole Hecklers – A designated group whose only job is to cheer, jeer, and distract while you swing. It’s all in good fun and adds a burst of energy you won’t find at any normal golf event.

We have sponsorship opportunities available again this year. Several companies have already joined in, and we welcome additional sponsors across all categories.

This year is about creating moments—big laughs, big swings, and big memories. We can’t wait to share this experience with you. Let’s make this the best one yet!

See you on the course!

We will have a social hour mixed into our formal meeting with appetizers, followed by updates from our local committees on their initiatives.

Once the meeting is completed, we will host a two-hour social session in the “Club House,” featuring a taco bar and simulators for baseball, golf, hockey, tennis, and bowling.
