Play Yellow - Impacting & Saving Lives Through Golf

A field of up to 20 teams of two area PGA Professionals and amateur golfers will play 72 holes of golf with hopes of generating $100,000 or more through people’s and companies’ pledged donations. Donations will generally be based on the number of birdies and eagles produced by each team. This is our inaugural event. It is designed to be a community game-changer for everyone involved. Individual pledges and local business support is needed. Please help make ours stand out among other Birdie Bashes around the country!

Sun Country Golf Foundation

The Sun Country Golf Foundation is operated in partnership by the Sun Country PGA Section and Sun Country Amateur Golf Association. The Foundation's goal is to "Impact Lives Through Golf" within three Pillars of Impact: Youth, Military, & Inclusion. We operate junior golf programs, offer college scholarships, break down the barrier of price for children to learn and play golf, offer U.S. Military active duty and Veterans golf as a rehabilitative tool, and eventually hope to fund a Fellowship program to support people of underrepresented demographics in golf.
