CENTRAL TEXAS BRANCH GOLF TOURNAMENT

 

The Central Texas Branch (CTB) is proud to announce our Annual Central Texas Scholarship Golf Tournament benefiting our College and Continuing Education Scholarship Programs. The Tournament is held each year at the Crystal Falls Golf Club in Leander on the second Friday in October.

 

Since 2005, the Central Texas Branch has assisted in covering some of the ever increasing costs of higher education to college bound students and continuing education to those in Public Works careers.  Sponsorship opportunities abound with “Tournament/Event Sponsor”, “Lunch Sponsor”, “Beverage Sponsor”, “Door Prize Sponsor” and “Hole Sponsor”. All sponsors will receive recognition prior to and during the event and at the lunch/awards presentation. Sponsors will have specific signs with Company Name/Logo designating their specific sponsorship.  All proceeds from this Golf Tournament will be used to support the Central Texas Branch’s Scholarship Fund.

 

The Tournament will have an 8:30 am shotgun start and participants can sign in between 7:00 am and 8:15 am on that morning. A lunch will be provided as well as cold beverages on the course. Awards will be presented to the top three foursomes, door prizes will be presented to certain lucky ticket holders and awards will be presented to “Hole in One,” “Long Drive Hole” and “Closest to the Pin Holes”.

 

Crystal Falls Golf Club is one of the most picturesque courses in the area. Tucked away in the Texas Hill Country, the trees and gently rolling hills cradle this beautiful layout. The Golf Club at Crystal Falls is a 6,654 yard, par 72 course that has earned its nickname, "The most scenic public golf course in Central Texas." So, whether you are a golfer who wants to relax on the course or test your limits, you will play a round you will never forget.
