The Grand Rapids Griffins’ inaugural Winter Golf Classic presented by Gimme’s Par & Grill will take place on Monday, Feb. 10 from 6-9 p.m., with proceeds benefiting the Griffins Youth Foundation and First Tee – West Michigan. 

Twelve Griffins players will be grouped with three fans apiece to form foursomes for this nine-hole scramble hosted by Gimme’s Par & Grill in downtown Grand Rapids. Fans can bid on which player they would like to golf with either online or through the DASH app, with 36 ultimately securing this unique opportunity. The auction will run from today until Feb. 6 with starting bids ranging from $50-$240.

In addition to experiencing a round of golf with their favorite Griffins player, every participant will receive a Griffins/Gimme’s/First Tee co-branded golf towel. Appetizers and a buffet dinner with soft drinks will be provided, with alcoholic beverages available to purchase at an additional cost. The 12 teams will be divided among six state-of-the-art simulators with two teams per bay. Participants are encouraged to bring their own golf clubs, but Gimme’s will provide them if needed.
