General Dynamics Mission Systems of Pittsfield (GDMS) is hosting the 13th annual golf tournament to benefit Soldier On, which is on track to open its newest facility in Tewksbury this year. The tournament will be held at Wyndhurst Manor & Club in Lenox, Mass. on Friday, August 16.
Even if you are not an experienced golfer, GDMS is planning a fun day with raffles, auctions, lunch, and a closing dinner, so please consider coming out. Last year’s tournament raised over $63,000 for Soldier On, which was only possible with the public’s participation and generosity.
Soldier On is a nonprofit organization that since 1994 has been “Changing the End of the Story” for homeless veterans throughout the country by providing and coordinating an extensive continuum of housing and support services. Learn more at www.wesoldieron.org.
GDMS will host two separate flights on the day of the tournament, at 7:30 a.m. and 1 p.m., and expects slots to fill up quickly. The tournament is a captain and crew format and will be a shotgun start. The cost to play is $150 per person or $600 for a team, which includes 18 holes of golf with cart, hole-in-one contests, swag, lunch, and dinner.
Please sign up via https://sogt.golf/
We recommend having the following identified and ready when registration opens: team size, desired tee time, and team name.
Additional team registration details: If your desired tee time is not available, GDMS highly encourages participants to sign up for the waitlist as there are reserved spots for sponsors, and if those are not purchased, organizers will work through the waitlist on a first come, first served basis.
Note that due to club restrictions, participants under the age of 18 are not permitted to attend this event.
Below are the rules regarding how the committee will handle team registration and waitlisting for all teams.
- Participant registration is first come, first serve and all sign-ups and payments will be through the website provided above.
- From the time your team is registered, you have 72 hours to pay the registration fees for the total number of slots you reserved to guarantee your slot.
- If you do not submit your payment in the 72-hour window your team will be given a warning and then moved to the bottom of the waitlist if no open slots remain.
- If your preferred flight fills up before your team is registered, you will be given the option of joining the other flight if slots remain.
- If you commit to the other flight, you can choose to remain on the waitlist for your preferred flight.
- If you cannot commit to the other flight, you can still choose to remain on the waitlist for your preferred flight.
- If slots become available leading up to the tournament, teams remaining on the waitlist will be contacted to register.
If you are interested in playing but do not have a complete team of four, there are options when registering to sign up as a single, twosome, and threesome on the website. The committee will match your group accordingly with other incomplete groups to create a foursome.
