Canton Main Street will host its second ?Glacial Golf? fundraiser on Saturday, Jan. 21, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The event is a progressive putt-putt golf tournament that takes place at six local bars, with prizes awarded for Best Score, Best Dressed Team, Best Golf Hole Design and Best Team Name. Brew ?N Cue, Generations Bar and Grill, Jack?s, Moore?s Pub, Official Time Out and White Oaks Sports Bar will each host golfers as they attempt to navigate miniature golf holes designed and constructed by the establishments.
Adding to the fun, participants can purchase up to two mulligans, which allow them the chance for a ?do-over? of a poor golf shot.
?It was lots of fun last year,? says Missy Towery, who is helping to coordinate the event for Canton Main Street.? ?It?s a great way to spend a cold winter afternoon with your friends, and some of the holes that bar owners came up with were a real challenge to get through. Everybody had a great time, and we raised a considerable amount of money to help with downtown area signage, once the new streetscape construction is completed.?
Registration will begin at Official Time Out at 11 a.m.? Lunch specials will be available, and the tournament will officially start at noon. Transportation will be available between Generations Bar & Grill and the downtown area taverns.
The cost for a four-person team to enter is $60.
Anyone interested in taking part in the tournament can register at any of the participating establishments, or by bring the registration fee to 45 E. Side Square, Suite 303.
Winners will be announced at the end of the tournament at Generations Bar & Grill.
This year, Canton Main Street hopes to raise as much or more in registration fees and mulligan sales, which will be used to support more projects in the downtown area.
The Main Street program is part of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, a movement focused upon restoring and revitalizing downtowns throughout the country, through restoration of historic buildings and their facades; developing events and activities that will draw the residents of the community downtown; economic development that will help businesses located in the downtown area, or bring new businesses downtown; and developing a comprehensive design for the look and feel of the downtown area.
