The Chamber’s tournament offers its members and guests a variety of sponsorship opportunities for them to play and network with business colleagues, gain exposure, build good will & get brand recognition for their business. At the tournament business owners, representatives and supporters completed their round, won prizes, competed in golf contests, enjoyed food and drinks and had an ultimate golf experience.

We are committed to workforce development & investing in Montgomery College students. The endowment was established for future giving. It will ensure that the GGCC continues to support Montgomery College in perpetuity.
