My good friend Heather Dee Perry, one of the Coral Reefer dancers.
I knew she looked familiar. Cool, can you get me an autographed pic?
I'll have to look for a good one of just Heather without some grey-haired old goat standing next to her.

Any Parrothead tournament should involve a sport that can be played with a drink in hand while playing. I strongly recommend a Bocce Ball Tournament. You can play and drink at the same time. Even better, there is no greens fee.

Bocce Ball is awesome!! Or Frisbee Golf!!

However, regular golf would bring the big bucks in.

I have set up charity golf tournaments for several years. Most good courses expect you to pay between $60 and $75 dollars per head (you do get lunch or dinner with the round of golf). In order to make money, you have to charge participants around $125 a head. Most courses want you to play your tournament on Monday or Tuesday to get the prefered rate. An 18 hole course will only accomadate 144 players for any one tournament (assuming a Flordia scramble). The only real way to make any money is have tournament "sponsors". People can sponsor a beer cart, or a hole in one competition, etc. My school nets, with several sponsors, between 12 and 18 thousand per tournament. It's a lot of work.

Let me set up a BYOB Bocce Ball Tournament. I not sure I can make a lot of money for charity, but I guarantee a good time for all.
