The Clambake Classic Golf Tournament

It will be a day of putts, pars, and pitching and friendly competition at this year's Clambake Classic Golf Tournament on Monday, October 7, 2019, at the Oak Hills Park Golf Course.  This annual fundraiser hosted by the Norwalk Seaport Association benefits the ongoing work and upkeep of Sheffield Island Lighthouse. “Our shoreline themed tournament is unlike any other charity outing around and no other tournament offers greater value”.  What makes this tournament so unique is that golfers play their own ball but score as a foursome.  “We call our format “Captain & Crew” which is fun for all levels of golfers,” Sabol added.

The Clambake Classic Golf Tournament kicks off at 10:45 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. with registration and is followed by a Clambake Dinner at Oak Hills Park Golf Course from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.  A highlight is the upscale clambake that includes New England clam chowder, shrimp cocktail, steamed clams, and a choice of 1.25 pound lobster, NY strip, grilled salmon or marinated grilled chicken that will be served with traditional red potatoes, corn on the cob, rolls, coleslaw and cookies.  “It’s such a great way to end the golf season.” The Tournament officially begins at 12:30 p.m. with a shotgun start where players come out swinging!  The fun continues with a hole in one, 50/50 hole, the longest drive,  and closest to the pin!  At this event everyone is is a winner because all participants get a gift package as well as the chance to try their luck at line prizes and the raffle.

The cost is $185 per golfer that also includes two raffle tickets for upscale prizes. The tournament is limited to just 32 foursomes. Twosomes and singles will be paired to make a foursome.
