(Nov. 20, 2014) Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Chesapeake will present the 22nd annual Santa’s Open Charity Golf Tournament, sponsored by Delmarva Power on Saturday, Dec. 6, at the Ocean Pines Golf & Country Club.
Santa’s Open began in 1992, with the goal to provide funds to benefit children and families who are in a need of support and encouragement here on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
Local businesses and residents have been involved by sponsoring or golfing for the cause during the season of giving.
There are various options available for sponsorships including: Toy Shoppe Tees, Santa’s Cheer Cart, Mrs. Claus’ Breakfast, Golfers Gifs or a North Pole Presenting Sponsor. Sponsorships will include promotion of business or organization depending on the chosen options listed. PNC Bank is sponsoring Rudolph’s Reception.   
Golf registration is open to the general public, which is $75 per player. The format is four-man teams.  Golf registration includes golfing fees, T-shirt, breakfast, rides on the cheer cart, reception, access to contest and gifts.
Each participant should also contribute an unwrapped gift for a child between the ages of 7-17. These gifts are for local children who are in need of support and encouragement.
