Fourth-Annual GNCC Golf
Tournament June 23 at the Wisp
Sponsorship and playing opportunities

Deep
Creek, MD – Once again it's time to go GNCC
Golfing before you go GNCC Racing! The
fourth-annual GNCC Golf Tournament at the Wisp
tees off Friday, June 23rd, at 2 p.m., the day
before the Parts Unlimited Wisp GNCC kicks off
with ATV racing on Saturday and bike racing on
Sunday.
There's no better chance to rub elbows with
the GNCC stars—and your friends—than with a day
off the track and on the links with the GNCC
family. The game will be competitive, but the
players surely aren't as good on the golf course
as they are on the race course! So don't worry
about the spikes or the right set of clubs. Just
join the club by coming out and playing.
The game takes place at Wisp’s beautiful
18-hole, par 72 course. The nearly 100 acre
course challenges players of all skill levels
with tree-lined fairways, strategically placed
bunkers, water hazards, and tournament-caliber
greens. Washington Golf Monthly recently named
it one of the "100 Must Play Courses of the
Mid-Atlantic.” Find more info at Wisp's website
www.golfwisp.com.
As always, the GNCC Golf tournament is open
to anyone and everyone, and the game is played
with teams of four in a best-ball, scramble
format. Golf costs $50 for each team member, and
the price includes dinner at the Wisp after the
game. All signup will be conducted at the Wisp
starting at noon Friday. Teams can be selected
or will be assigned randomly. And the winning
team will have its name engraved on the GNCC
Golf Trophy, which is on display in the lobby of
the Racer Productions offices.
The off-road racing industry is encouraged to
sponsor a hole on the course for $250. Each
sponsor will receive dinner, and is encouraged
to display banners or product at their hole. The
event is expected to garner media coverage in
industry publications, as well as on the Suzuki
GNCC TV Series on Outdoor Life Network. So be
ready to take advantage!
