The Hendrick Golf Classic is an annual fundraiser to support the economic and community development work of the Chamber. Click here to learn more who we are and our mission.

This year in order to keep you safe, we will not be doing a shot gun start, and other cleaning and distancing measures will be taken. Tee times will begin at 8:00 a.m. and continue through noon. Participants will enjoy a lunch, beverages and snacks on the course provided by the club.

Interested in marketing your business at the Hendrick Golf Classic? Contact Rebecca Dickenson to learn more. We have sponsorship opportunities ranging from hosting a table at one of the holes to providing branded golf balls for each player or even placing your custom made sign inside each golf cart.

Join in the conversation about the Golf Classic on Facebook and on Twitter, using the hashtag #HendrickClassic.
