I am very fortunate to have the privilege to work with some of the most dedicated people over the history of this wonderful charitable event. This event has grown and will continue to grow as the premiere charitable golf tournament in the panhandle. The people of the PCO have afforded me with a new respect of helping others, and I am proud to be able to call the people of the PCO my friends.Tom Goetter, Tournament Director

Panhandle Charitable Open
Golf Tournament 2013
This tournament has grown into a high quality golf tournament supporting several local charities. The Panhandle Charitable Open, a 501c3 non profit organization has raised thousands of dollars for local charities thanks to the generous support of businesses and individuals like you. The success in recent years of the PCO enabled our board to donate nearly $325,000 to charities such as Child Guardians, Inc., Gulf Coast Kids House, Council on Aging of West Florida, ARC Gateway, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Independence for the Blind, American Cancer Society, and Covenant Hospice. The primary charities this year are Child Guardians, Inc., Council on Aging of West Florida, and Gulf Coast Kids House. Increasing the number of charities which participate highlights a goal of the PCO to continue to expand the impact and reach of our golf tournament.
This tournament uses a 2-day, 2-person Best Ball format which is unique to charity tournament golf in that it allows each player to play their own ball from tee to green. Teams will be flighted after the first day in order to group teams by skill level. We are expanding the possible playing times to allow for additional participation as well as attempting to maintain a reasonable pace of play. The tournament will be played Friday, September 27th and Saturday, September 28th, 2013. The PCO has continued to grow in popularity and success each year. The tournament has filled up several times in recent years. Early submission of your sponsorship and team information is encouraged to guarantee your spot. If the tournament slots fill with paid sponsors/players, additional spots may be available on Friday morning and Saturday afternoon. All players and their spouses/guests will be treated to live music and food after play on Friday.
We welcome your participation in the 12th Annual Panhandle Charitable Open as we continue to build this event into the premier charity golf tournament in the Panhandle. Please feel free to contact any of the golf committee members for additional information.
