The first round of the Drive Out Hunger Golf Experience tees off at 4:30pm, followed by the second round at 6:30pm. Players may request morning tee times (8:00am – 10:20am) and return later to enjoy the Sunset Social. Pickleball for a Purpose Tournament play starts at 6:00pm. The evening wraps up with an Awards Presentation at 8:30pm and the event officially concludes at 10:00pm. Sunset Social entertainment begins across the venue at 5:00pm.
All participants in the Golf and Pickleball Tournaments receive full access to Sunset Social perks. Children 12 and under may attend the Sunset Social for free; children age 10+ who wish to participate in golf or pickleball must purchase a player ticket.
