Woodloch Resort is excited to announce the 3rd Annual Pinstripes Golf Classic. Held, once again, at the Country Club at Woodloch Springs. The event will take place Wednesday June 16th, 2010 with a 12:00PM shotgun start. The annual tournament established itself last year at Woodloch Resort with an enthusiastically received, SOLD OUT, tournament. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Northeastern PA Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, combining the powerful resources of two Northeastern PA companies to benefit our families, friends and neighbors.

The tournament features an 18-hole scramble format comprised of an amateur foursome plus one player/coach from the SWB Yankees through each hole. The event will kick off with lunch at the Clubhouse at Woodloch Springs and conclude with dinner. There will be awards and prizes, Yankees memorabilia and a chance to mingle with popular SWB Yankees on and off the course. The cost for each
player is $250.00 or $1000.00 for a full foursome and many valuable sponsorship opportunities.
