Annual Carbondale Classic

Carbondale Main Street, the Carbondale Nightlife and Venegoni Distributing once again work to establish downtown as a drinking destination.  The organizers are having to go outside the traditional downtown area (Pinch Penny Pub) to fill the slate as two long time downtown bars (Stix and Gatsby's) aren't on the list as participating.

The Nightlife, Venegoni Distributing and Carbondale Main Street are getting ready for the 3rd Annual Carbondale Classic. This year’s bar-to-bar putt-putt golf is scheduled for Saturday, March 24, 2012. Check in time for teams will begin at 9:45 and teams will tee off promptly at 10am. Registration has already begun and ends Monday, March 19th.

Teams can register at participating bars or at carbondalemainstreet.com.

All team members must be 21.  The participation fee for a team of four is $100.00 and includes long sleeved tshirts, a chance at prizes and an official scorecard.  This year, a team can also add a caddy (designated driver) who will receive a free hoodie and free non-alcoholic drinks throughout the day.

Last year’s event was very successful and this year we are happy that the following bars and restaurants will be participating in this year’s event: Hangar 9, The Blue Martin, Elks Club, Global Gourmet, Tres Hombres, The Cellar, Sidetracks, Italian Village and Pinch Penny Pub.

Each participating bar will set up their own creative and challenging hole for teams to play. The first place team will receive $500 and a golf package to a local golf course. Second place will receive $300 and third place $200. Winners will be announced at a party hosted by the participating bar with the most teams registered.

Come see what makes Downtown Carbondale the place to be, with this new Carbondale favorite!
