People may support the non-profit Ridgefield Playhouse by guessing how many birdies will be made at the Travelers Championship Pro-Am River Highlands in Cromwell.
PGA Tour professionals are anticipated to make between 1,500 and 2,000 birdies from Wednesday to Sunday, June 18-22.
Supports may pledge an amount starting at two cents for each birdie by Tuesday, June 17, and guess how many birdies will be made.
The person who correctly guesses the exact number of birdies will win the Grand Prize of a two-year lease on a 2014 Ford Escape SE. Other prizes for guessing the correct number of birdies include a World Golf Hall of Fame vacation, a four-person trip to at TPC River Highlands, and a $1,000 cash gift card.
Donations help the Playhouse’s odds to receive an extra $500 to $5,000 in Birdies Bonus Bucks if it is among the top-10 collecting charities. The person who places the highest pledge per birdie will receive free tickets to the tournament, tickets to a show at the Ridgefield Playhouse and access to the Jefferson Starship show at the Open that week.
To make a per birdie pledge or flat rate donation, visit TravelersChampionship.com/birdies-for-charity and select The Ridgefield Playhouse. Printed pledge forms are also be available at the Playhouse.
