New Jersey Golf Net

New Brunswick, NJ – If golf is your passion (as well as theatre), New Brunswick's George Street Playhouse invites you to participate in their 17th Annual Benefit Gold Tournament, to be held Monday, June 16 on the Banks course at Forsgate Country Club eighteen of the most challenging holes of golf in the state. The individual golfer fee of $400 includes all greens fees, carts, lunch, beverages on the course, and a buffet dinner and awards ceremony with a host of wonderful prizes including cars, a historic Scotland Golf Trip, and a $1,000,000 hole-in-one.

Golfers will be arranged in foursomes (if they haven't signed up as such already) and will play scramble format, which allows each golfer to tee off and then all four will hit from the location of the best ball. In addition to signing up as a golfer, there are numerous sponsorship opportunities for individuals or businesses.
