The Golf & Tennis Classic is open to the entire community, not only JCC members. Tee off is at 12:00pm following brunch from 10:30am-11:45am. In the evening, everyone enjoys a festive cocktail party and BBQ buffet dinner, raffles galore and tournament trophies, all of which begins at 5:45pm.
Tennis is from 8:30am- 1:30pm following a continental breakfast at 8:15.
If you can't participate during the day, "Dinner only" is an option. Reservations are required. To reserve your spot for golf, tennis, dinner or to buy a raffle ticket, please contact Sylvia Cohen at 718.475.5246 or scohen@sijcc.com.
The day is full of fun activities for golfers even before they tee off. A JCC massage therapist will provide pre-golf massages. A lavish brunch will be served before the activities begin.
There will be a $50,000 cash prize shoot out for 4 golfers whose names will be drawn at brunch before the start of golf for the day. The JCC will split the prize with the winner. That way everyone, the children and the golfers, will be winners. The four golfers will try for a hole-in-one which will be set up 150 yards out on the 18th hole which is visible from the RCCC clubhouse deck.
In addition to the prizes, contests and activities, there will be both a live auction led by past JCC President Jon Salmon.
