What are some creative ways to plan a benefit golf outing?
this outing is benefiting a sports club team. I am searching to figure out what all I need. How do I go about obtaining local sponsors, silent auction, donations?
Unfortunately there is no substitute for hard work in the area of marketing. You need to get out and publicize your event. It will help if you have a larger number of participants, because businesses will be more eager to participate.
Go out and offer hole sponserships. Allow the business to put up a sign on the tee box of each hole they choose to sponsor and charge a set amount to be a sponser (ie $200 per hole sponsored). I’d also go out and try to get your local sports talk radio show involved. Many of them will allow you to come on during the week and talk about the event. If you could land a celebrity to play, then you can have people "bid" to play with the celebrity. They do this for benefit tournaments in the Nashville area. Usually local celebrities will participate, and there have even been some events that Vince Gill, Amy Grant, etc. have come out to support the cause. People will pay to play with high profile people.
Mostly, just emphasize the cause that you are playing for. Most people still have good hearts and will jump up to help out.
get some naked girls on each hole
