8th Annual Play 4 The Kids Tournament

8th Annual Play 4 The Kids Tournament

The 8TH Annual Play 4 The Kids Tournament benefiting Children’s Miracle Network and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta will be hosted by Bear’s Best Atlanta located in Suwanee. Golf Magazine ranks Bear’s Best Atlanta as one of the top 10 courses you can play in America. The date is set for October 10, 2011 and we will be teeing off at 1:00 in a shotgun start.

Bear’s Best Atlanta measures 6,558 yards long from the Blue Tees. Varying elevations from tee to green coupled with strategically placed sand traps make for a challenging round of golf. For those of us who are not as proficient, the Scramble Format provides everyone a more level playing field.

Bear’s Best Atlanta is a unique course. Jack Nicklaus selected the best 18 holes from more than 200 course designs worldwide and put them into one extraordinary round of golf. Check out the Cheat Sheet Page for a description of each hole. Bear’s Best philosophy is to provide each guest with a memorable round of golf and the 8TH Annual Play4TheKids Tournament looks to make it a truly memorable day for the golfers, volunteers and most of all for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
