“This is our largest fundraising and most popular event of the year. Both the Golf Challenge and Kickoff Party sell out quickly. We count on business and personal sponsorship to ensure the event’s success.” said Randy Gray, Space Coast Gator Club President.

There will also be several Gator vendors on hand selling all types of Florida Gator merchandise to get you ready for the upcoming season.

A silent auction and raffle, with all proceeds going to the club’s scholarship fund for local Brevard county students, will also highlight the event.

A “Tailgator Buffet” with fresh off-the-grill hamburgers, hotdogs and pulled pork with all the sides will be served at 6:30 p.m. There will also be a salad bar included.
