The tournament reinforced its status as a course capable of attracting statewide attention while also supporting Palm Coast’s local economy and community profile.
The City of Palm Coast recognized the Florida State Golf Association, Palm Harbor Golf Club staff, volunteers, and the visiting families for contributing to a successful weekend of competition.
