Grand Finale To Be Rescheduled to 2021

July 30, 2020

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Jupiter, Florida (July 30, 2020)—

Out of an abundance of caution for our donors and with recent travel restrictions to and from The Bahamas, Els for Autism has decided to postpone its 10th Annual Golf Challenge Grand Finale. The Grand Finale was scheduled to take place at the Baha Mar Resort in October 2020 but has been rescheduled to October 24-26, 2021.

Golf Challenge regional events will go on as scheduled, on a case by case basis. The health and safety of our supporters remain a top priority, and all recommended guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will be followed at every event. Precautions include social distancing, facial coverings, hand washing, and additional disinfecting and sanitation procedures.

“We continue to be amazed at the support and generosity of our Golf Challenge family,” Ernie Els said. “Our presenting sponsors, SAP and Wine Spectator, as well as our other sponsors and grassroots fundraising teams, have stepped up even in these most challenging times. I look forward to toasting all of you at our 2020/2021 Finale in the beautiful Bahamas.”

All Golf Challenge teams and sponsors that raise at least $15,000 in 2020 will be invited to the 2020/2021 Golf Challenge Grand Finale. Additionally, any team or sponsor that fundraises an additional $15K in 2021 will be invited to the Golden Circle Club at the 2020/2021 Finale. Access to the Gold Circle Club includes an extra night of accommodation and a bonus round of golf.

If you have any questions, contact: Paige Scollard, Events Manager at 561-320-9532 or paige.scollard@elsforautism.org.
