Caddyshack Classic and Auction Golf Tournament

We hosted our 28^th Annual Caddyshack Classic and Annual Auction Golf Tournament on Friday, August 23, 2013 at Emerald Bay Golf Club. The two fundraisers began on Friday with the Caddyshack Classic 18-Hole Golf Tournament and continued through Saturday, August 24, 2013 with the 28^th Annual Auction on the Big Deck at Harbor Docks. 

This year’s event was the most successful one to date! In just two days we raised a total of $59,809 for two local charities. Our very special Take A Kid Fishing Day, which is on Sunday, November 4, 2013 and Destin Harvest. Destin Harvest received $10,000 of the proceeds and the remaining $49,809 benefitted Take-A-Kid Fishing Day!

The golf tournament hosted 24 teams at Emerald Bay Golf Club. Golfers were able to enjoy delicious barbecue lunch from Jim ‘N Nick’s of Destin. Around 200 guests attended the auction and bid on 19 live auction lots with fantastic items such as a BOTE board, a trip to the Bahamas, a Fender guitar signed by Brad Paisley and much more. The silent auction included over 40 items such as vacation stays and an iPad donated from Blue Marlin Realty Group!

Our golf tournament was in its 28^th year at Emerald Bay and it raises around $10k-12k every year. Last year’s auction alone raised a whopping $31,000! However, this year everyone’s gracious generosity made it the largest donation yet. Thanks Destin, we couldn’t have done it without you!
