The Classic will follow a shotgun format starting at 10:00am, ensuring a fair and competitive environment for all participants. The cost is $100 per player and each participant will receive a goodie bag, a choice of hamburger or hot dog, several beverages for lunch, and a delicious Krolick’s Chicken BBQ dinner back at the Challenger Learning Center afterwards.
