Get ready to golf: Registration is Open

Monday, June 23rd  |  Timber Banks

Get ready for an awesome day of golf, networking, and some friendly competition at this year’s Big I CNY Golf Tournament on Monday, June 23rd. We’re at the beautiful Timber Banks and you get to pick the style of play that suits you best!

9-Hole Golf Social
Great for beginners and recreational golfers. Get in an easy and relaxing 9-hole first thing in the morning before grabbing lunch at the clubhouse. Plenty of time for you to head into the office or take the rest of the day off…we won’t tell.

18-Hole Tournament
Perfect for avid golfers looking to show off their game and want a challenge. This is the whole tournament experience with contests, lunch, and drinks on the course. We’ll wrap up the day and award prizes at the post-tournament reception and dinner. Contests include Longest Drive, Closest to the Pin, Hole-in-One, and 50/50 Tee Shot. To keep the pace of play moving, we are once again doing max bogey per hole and max two putts. We are also capping the tournament to 32 teams. May the best foursome win!

No matter the play you pick, you'll have a great time hitting the links while helping local charities. Thanks to your support of last year’s tournament, we donated $20,000. The tournament also supports the Project InVEST Robert Maher Memorial Scholarship Fund, which helps CNY students continue their education in the field of insurance.  

Golf’s not your game? That’s okay– come out to Timber Banks for the social reception and dinner. Enjoy the beautiful view from the back deck and catch up with friends.

***The 18-hole tournament is SOLD OUT***

Please contact AJ to be added to the waitlist. The 9-hole social still has open slots. Payment is required to confirm your registration. Names can be provided later.

If you have any questions or need help registering, please contact Allison Just at 315-432-4249 or by email at ajust@biginy.org.  

This is a fun event with the 9-hole social in the morning for beginner golfers with the 18-hole tournament to follow. This event raises money for local charities. The 2024 tournament donated $20,000!
