Preparations are underway at CuisinArt Golf Resort & Spa for the eagerly anticipated 2013 Anguilla Open Golf Tournament sponsored by General Electric. The 2nd Annual Anguilla Open is a Championship Golf Tournament that will draw up to one hundred golfers from Anguilla, St. Martin, Antigua, Guadeloupe, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, The Bahamas, Puerto Rico and The United States. Participants will enjoy 3 rounds of Golf on the stunning Greg Norman Signature Golf Course as well as lavish Opening and Closing Receptions and delicious lunches during play. Visitors who play in the tournament can also benefit from greatly reduced rates at Cuisinart Golf Resort & Spa.
The team at the golf course has been diligently recruiting players and sponsors for the National Championship to be held in early June. General Electric is the Title Sponsor for the 2nd year in a row and the Conair Corporation has also signed on as a major sponsor. Inovateus Solar TSG Water will be sponsoring the Opening and Closing Receptions respectively.
Ryan Bowey, the Head Golf Professional at the Club and the organizer of the event says: “We are very thankful to our signature sponsors but we are still looking for additional sponsors for various categories like Hole-in-One and Top Prize. Sponsorships are so significant because the purpose of The Anguilla Open is to raise funds for Junior Golf in Anguilla. Fifty percent of the sponsorship dollars, after some expenses, go directly into a “Junior Golf Fund” that we created last year. The game of golf teaches children many life skills and builds character, which is an initiative of ours on the island. Among other things, the game of golf teaches juniors honesty, integrity, respect, judgment, responsibility, confidence and perseverance. The funds from the Anguilla Open are helping us develop a junior golf program on the island so we can expose the youth of Anguilla to this great game.”
The setting for this event is stunning with The Club House and much of the course benefiting from breathtaking views of St. Maarten/St. Martin and the Caribbean Sea. Combine this with the attentiveness of the entire staff at CuisinArt Golf Resort & Spa and the event is expected to once again be a “First Class” occasion.
Registration is: $350 and includes 3 rounds of Golf, 2 Lunches, Opening and Closing Receptions, Prizes and Gift Bag. Sponsorship Opportunities from $150 to $2000 are still available.
