Announcing the 7th Annual
Husky Band Alumni
Golf Classic
in honor of Andrew Mandel
Please join us for a fun day of golf, food and friends, as we raise funds for Husky Band Scholarships. Online registration is available now! for both golf or our Awards Lunch and Auction. (You do not need to be a Husky Band Alum to participate in this event!)
This year's tournament is in memory of Andrew Mandel, 1991 graduate of the University of Washington, and dedicated member of the Husky Marching Band. Andrew started as a trumpet player and went on to lead the band as Drum Major in the 1991 and 1992 Rose Bowl Parades. Andrew passed away in 2005 after a courageous battle with cancer. To honor his memory and devotion to the band, the Husky Marching Band Alumni Association has established a scholarship for current drum majors. Proceeds from the golf tournament will fund the Andrew Mandel Drum Major Scholarship and other Husky Band scholarships.
Our tournament has something for everyone! For those new to golf tournaments, we'd like to assure you that this event is not cutthroat, in fact far from it. At every hole, each member of the foursome takes a turn to hit the ball--the team takes their next shot from the position of the best hit ball. Mulligans, or "do overs" can be purchased to give your team additional help. This means that it is possible for your team to win the tournament with 3 lousy golfers and one good golfer. Even bad golfers are bound to get lucky and have a few good shots throughout the day! Besides, driving the golf cart is a lot of fun!
If you don't want to golf, but just want to join us for lunch (lunch activities include an Auction with lots of great items and the tournament Awards Ceremony); the cost is $28.
