The tournament officially begins with a short rally and shotgun starts at 9:30 a.m. Guests are met by various vendors, hole sponsors, and contests throughout the day on course. In addition, guests in attendance and other community members can participate in an online silent auction that offers a variety of exciting packages to bid on. 

As the players end their round of golf around 2:00 p.m., the tournament ends with a live tally of contest winners and the announcement of the first through third place tournament winners during a Happy Hour Awards Reception with food and beverages.
