Spectators will have a shot at winning $3,000 by competing in Craigs Investment Partners ‘Closest to the Pin’ competition, with all money raised going to the Lakes District Air Rescue Trust.
Taking place on the 9th hole on the Remarkables course at Millbrook Resort between 12pm and 2pm on Saturday and Sunday March 1 and 2, 2024, all those keen to ‘have a go’ will pay a donation to the Foundation in return for two attempts at hitting a golf ball closest to the pin.
This year Craigs Investment Partners is also partnering with Canon Oceania to give participants the opportunity to try their new PowerShot GOLF laser rangefinder. In addition to the cash prize, the winners of the ‘Closest to the Pin’ competition on both the Saturday and Sunday will each receive a PowerShot GOLF proudly donated by Canon Oceania. The PowerShot GOLF brings together advanced range-finding capabilities with visual imaging technology to deliver maximum results.
How Closest to the Pin works:
It’s open to all amateur golfers and the person who records the closest to the pin shot during each day of the competition will take home $3,000 prize money from Craigs Investment Partners and a Canon PowerShot GOLF laser rangefinger. The distance to the pin from the tee set up, especially for the event will be approximately 125 metres
