It’s hard to imagine that a hole-in-one helps provide a comfortable bed and hot meal for a family grappling with the frightening and unfamiliar realities of caring for a sick child, but the game of golf is exactly what guests of Quantum House depend on. For years golfer have teed-up at the Shamrock Classic ready to play 18 holes while helping parents with critically ill children through some of the toughest times they will face. This year will be no different at the 17th Annual Shamrock Classic Golf Tournament to benefit Quantum House on April 11 and 12 at the Paddy Mac’s in Palm Beach Gardens and at the PGA Estates Course.
Quantum House supporters and community partners are all invited to participate in the weekend-long golf extravaganza with one of the most unique event line-ups of the season. Golf foursomes and their guests are treated to a private lobster and steak dinner at Paddy Mac’s on Saturday night sponsored by TBC Corporation. The evening will feature traditional Irish music as well as a live and silent auction jam packed with goodies for golfers and non-golfers alike.
The golfers will tee up and fuel up Sunday morning at The PGA Estates Course at Bay Hill Estates with breakfast sponsored by St. Mary’s Medical Center and Palm Beach Children’s Hospital and then make their way out to the greens. Once on the course, golfers will enjoy various food stations and the opportunity to win a brand new luxury car courtesy of Schumacher Automotive! After the golfers finish 18 amusing holes, they will head back to Paddy Mac’s for a delicious lunch and collect their prizes.
“There’s no denying The Shamrock Classic is a lively tournament with food, drinks and fun but it’s really about coming together to help families during their darkest days,” said Robi Jurney, Executive Director of Quantum House. “Our loyal supporters really get what we do and have come out year after year to help us achieve our mission.”
Foursomes for the Shamrock Classic are available for $1,000 and include gourmet dinner, breakfast & lunch, refreshments on the course, goodie bag and tournament golf shirt. Tee signs are available for purchase at only $100 per sign and tournament sponsorship packages are still available.
