Northern Essex Community College alumni and friends are gearing up for this year’s golf tournament, which will be held on September 30, 2019, at Atkinson Resort & Country Club in Atkinson, New Hampshire.

Registration and breakfast begins at 7:30 a.m. with a shotgun start and scramble beginning at 9 a.m. The awards luncheon and silent auction begins at 2 p.m.

Last year’s golf tournament raised over $14,000 with over 30 event sponsors. More than 110 golfers participated representing 28 teams.

Proceeds benefit the NECC Athletic Program, which recently reintroduced its intercollegiate golf program for both men and women for the 2018-19 academic year. The last time NECC had a golf program was 19 years ago. The Atkinson Resort & Country Club is the home course for the NECC golf team for practice and home competition.

For the 2019-20 academic year the college has also brought back both the men’s soccer and women’s basketball programs, along with a new Esport program. Proceeds from the golf tournament will be used for athletic facility improvements, continued sports expansion, and for students athletics support programs to help them reach their academic and athletic goals.

Numerous options for sponsorship and registration are available here.

The cost for individual golfers is $175, which includes green fees, 18 holes of golf with cart, lunch, an awards dinner, a golf gift bag, and an Under Armour gift. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. with a shotgun start/scramble at 9 a.m. Lunch will follow at 2 p.m. alongside a silent auction.
