Golfing with a Purpose
With 18 celebrity foursomes paired with professional golfers and enthusiastic amateurs, expect a fun mix of competition and camaraderie. Local talent Patrick O’Brien has snagged his spot through a qualifying event, showcasing that local skill shines as bright as Hollywood glitz. Among the returning golfers are familiar faces like George Bryan, Matt Atkins, Tyler Watts, and the charismatic Nick Stubbe (better known as Fat Perez). They’ll be joined by golf content creators Peter Finch, Micah Morris, and many others, all ready to entertain and inspire the crowd.
The tournament aims to build upon the success of last year’s inaugural event, which attracted around 40,000 attendees and funneled a whopping $15.4 million into the local economy, benefiting businesses and local attractions. Beyond just a stellar weekend of golf, the ONEFlight Classic aims to make a difference in the community. Last year, it raised $225,000 for local charities, including the Boys and Girls Club and Help4Kids, supporting vital programs for children in the area.
New Additions for 2023
This year, the tournament is introducing a heartwarming new feature called the “Patriots Outpost”. This initiative aims to honor our military members by offering complimentary tickets for practice rounds and exclusive discounts for veterans, making it even more inclusive. There’s something for everyone, including a junior golf clinic for aspiring young golfers and a family day where kids can join in for free with a paid adult admission. It’s a fantastic way to engage families and encourage the next generation of golfers.
