The Gunston School will be holding its spring fundraiser, Golfing “fore” Gunston VI, on Friday, May 2 at Queenstown Harbor in Queenstown, Md. Join fellow Gunston parents, alumni and community members for another fun-filled day on the links. Continental breakfast will be served in the clubhouse before we tee off with a shotgun start at 9 a.m. A lunch cookout will be served on the Turn as well as refreshments and snacks served throughout the day. Once all 18 holes are completed, golfers are invited to the banquet room for an awards ceremony and light refreshments where we will announce the Men and Women First Place teams, Men and Women Longest Drive, Closest to the Pin, and of course we can’t forget our “Last Place” winners. Joining again this year will be Professional Long Driver Scott Kalamar for an entertaining “Hole in 2” challenge, where golfers who made a qualifying donation can attempt to hole out the pro’s 400-yard drive on Par 5 for a chance to win a 3-day dream golf getaway to Pebble Beach, Cal.  

Golf registration is $200 per player or $800 per foursome and $190 for alumni golfers and $775 for alumni foursomes. Additionally, there are mulligans and a string game for purchase which not only increases your chances of winning, but further supports the Gunston School and its initiatives. Sponsorships are also available, ranging from $100 up to $3,000 and include the opportunity for businesses to get their name and logo in front of the entire Gunston community of students, parents, alumni, and local community members. Proceeds from the event supports Gunston’s annual giving program, which offers students and faculty opportunities beyond what tuition would typically pay for.
