In addition to supporting a worthy cause and the chance to play a round of golf on a world-class course, there is now another reason to play in the Oct. 6 Race Track Chaplaincy of America Sixth Annual Golf Tournament with the announcement of more than $50,000 in agricultural and construction equipment available for hole-in-one prizes thanks to Equine Equipment.
The RTCA's golf tournament is set to be played at Champions Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, KY, home of the PGA Barbasol Championship, with proceeds to support RTCA National and racetrack Chaplaincies everywhere.
An all-expense paid Hawaiian vacation was previously announced as a hole-in-one prize, and now golfers will have three more chances to score big. Individual holes on the course will have hole-in-one prizes of a Toro mower valued at $10,000, an Exmark mower valued at $10,000 and the choice of a $35,000 New Holland tractor or skid steer.
“We always try to give back to the horse industry, and there's no better way to do that than by helping to advance the mission of the RTCA,” said Steve Andersen, founder of Equine Equipment. “We are lucky to have partners like Toro, Exmark and New Holland that can make promotions like this possible. I really hope to be arranging for delivery of a new mower, tractor or skid steer after someone scores an ace.”
“We are thrilled to add such wonderful prizes to the hole-in-one chances at this year's tournament”, said Dan Waits, RTCA Executive Director. “It may be a rarity, but this adds another level of anticipation and every try at the pin will be exciting. Our sincere thanks to Equine Equipment for making this happen.”
Registration is still open for the event, which begins with lunch at noon and a shotgun start at 1 p.m. To get more information or to register, contact the RTCA at 859-410-7822 or go to www.rtcanational.org.
