Twenty-seven golf teams teed off in the Destin Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Golf Tournament Sponsored by Renasant Bank on Oct. 1, at Emerald Bay Golf Course. Green Earth Southeast took home top prize, followed by CPC Office Technologies and Warren Averett. Drew Armacost of Affordable Home Insurance and Matthew Howard of 360 Blue won the Longest Drive prizes. Kevin Bowyer of Warren Averett, Jeremy Sprenkle of 360 Blue and Erik Thompson of Five Channels won the Closest to the Pin prizes.
The tournament scoreboard was sponsored by Somerby Santa Rosa Beach. Golfers enjoyed a cookout with lunch sponsor Cavinder Elevator Company, and some time on the practice tee and green with sponsors 360 Blue and Ben & Jerry's. Beverage carts made the rounds, thanks to sponsors SimpleHR and Talcon Group, and golfers enjoyed beer from 3rd Planet Brewing. Century 21 Blue Marlin Pelican and The Henderson kept the grill fired up throughout the event, serving chili, barbecue and sliders. Though no one claimed the prize, The Blake at Miramar Beach sponsored a $10K hole-in-one prize.
