Goose Creek Announces Inaugural Golf Tournament

The first Goose Creek Classic Golf Tournament will be held Aug. 26, the city announced Friday.

The event at the city-owned Crowfield Golf and Country Club is the latest to mark Goose Creek's 50th anniversary.

"The Goose Creek Classic aims to bring together residents, community leaders and business owners in an effort to improve the city," stated the release from the city.

The tournament is also the latest effort to to one of the city's biggest recreational assets: the Crowfiled golf course and clubhouse.

"People don't know they own a country club," Mayor Michael Heitzler told Patch recently. "They don't know about the opportunity for recreation in that part of town."

The city hosted a "dive-in" movie at the club pool earlier this month for city residents and it has been hosting weekly free concerts at the clubhouse this summer.

Registration forms for the golf tournament are available on the city’s website or at Crowfield. The deadline to register is July 29.
