Show Notes

In this particular episode, Cal and Wigs interview Scott Parker about the upcoming third annual charity golf tournament benefiting local children's institutions in San Felipe. The conversation highlights the event's details, such as its date (April 9th), cost ($100 per person to participate), the $10K Hole-In-One competition, and the involvement of the San Felipe Brewing Company as the host and a key sponsor. Beyond the golf itself, the discussion emphasizes the community spirit and charitable purpose, also inviting non-golfers to the after-party and raffle at the brewery to support these important local causes. The upcoming event is the third annual charity golf tournament. It is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, April the 9th. The cost to participate is $100 per person. The proceeds from the tournament will benefit three local institutions that support children:

•Movimiento Por El Autismo San Felipe:A relatively new program (around 1.5-2 years old) that promotes social inclusion and education for autistic individuals of all ages in San Felipe.

•Hoy Si Comi: A local nonprofit that provides daily lunches to up to 150 low-income students who might otherwise not eat that day.

•CAM School: An educational institution offering special education services to students with disabilities, aiming for their integral development and social inclusion.

The San Felipe Brewing Company is the host and sponsor of the event. The tournament aims for 60 players each year, and it typically sees an 80/20 mix of local and expat golfers, many of whom regularly play on the course.

A significant highlight of the tournament is the $10,000 hole-in-one prize offered on par three hole number five, sponsored by San Felipe Solar and Electric. To be eligible for the prize, men must hit the hole from at least 155 yards, and women from at least 140 yards.

Even if you are not participating as a golfer, the public is welcome to spectate, particularly at hole number five. Additionally, there will be an after-tournament party at the brewery starting around 3:00 PM, which is open to everyone. This party will feature a raffle with a tremendous number of really good prizes, such as a stay at Chenowith Lodge and a tasting at Cheese Caves Negros, and around 30-35 other nice prizes.

The golf tournament itself will have a shotgun start at 10:00 AM and follow a four-person scramble format, with an expected round time of about four hours. At the hole-in-one hole (number five), the brewery will have a booth set up with beer available.

The deadline to signup for the golf tournament is next Friday (as of the recording)-April 4. Those interested in participating can find more information on the flyer at the brewery or can contact Scott Parker by texting or calling (707)548-3032.

Last year, the event successfully raised $5,500 for the charities.
