The Tryon Country Club will help the Town of Tryon celebrate its 125th birthday with a four-player scramble tournament beginning at 9 a.m. on Sept. 3.

The tournament will have nine- and 18-hole divisions. The nine-hole tournament will tee off at 9 a.m., and the 18-hole event will begin at 1 p.m.

We want to help Tryon celebrate its 125th birthday and give people out there a chance to see our historic, old golf course, said Tryon County Club Head Professional Marc Brady.

Cost of the event is $120 per foursome for the nine-hole tournament and $165 per foursome for the 18-hole event. Tournament fees include a barbecue lunch that will be served from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m.

Part of the proceeds will also go to benefit the PGA of Americas fourth-annual Patriot Golf Day program. Patriot Golf Day is a nationwide fundraiser Sept. 3-6 for the Folds of Honor Foundation. Money raised from all the events will go toward the foundations mission of providing post-secondary educational scholarships for the children and spouses of military men and women disabled or killed serving in the U.S. armed forces.

We have nine- and 18-hole tournaments, and we have tee boxes for everyone young, old, juniors and seniors, Brady said. Well have prizes in both divisions. Its going to be fun.
