Trade the Office for the Golf Course
Sometimes the best conversations happen outside the office. On Tuesday, October 6, GMA members, partners, customers and industry friends will come together at Royal American Links for the 21st Annual Graphic Media Alliance & Sterling Distribution Golf Tournament!
It’s a full day to step away from the usual routine, catch up with familiar faces, make new connections and enjoy a little friendly competition along the way.
And you don’t need to be an experienced golfer to join us. Our scramble format makes it easy for everyone to participate. Put together a foursome with coworkers, invite a customer you’ve been meaning to spend more time with or register individually and we’ll get you out on the course.
Throughout the day, golfers can take their shot at Closest to the Pin, Longest Drive, Longest Putt, a $10,000 Hole-in-One contest and additional Hole-in-One challenges, with prizes and plenty of opportunities for bragging rights.
Your registration also includes breakfast, lunch and drink tickets, so all you need to bring are your clubs and your competitive spirit.
