This special evening will begin with a golf clinic for novice golfers who are blind or visually impaired. The clinic will be led by two National Blind Golf Champions, Bruce Hooper and Phil Blackwell, who will also demonstrate their skills for all guests to enjoy. Cocktails, dinner, entertainment and Night Golf will follow. Those participating in Night Golf will play a 9-hole scramble illuminated only by glow-in-the-dark golf balls and glowing course markers. Dinner guests will enjoy entertainment such as a casino night experience, live auction and special guest appearances. A longest drive contest with prizes and dessert will close out the evening.
The mission of Shot in the Dark Golf & Dinner Classic is to further the reach of Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind by educating the community that people who are blind or visually impaired can overcome obstacles to achieve new heights.
