DAVENPORT, IOWA (March 15, 2024) — Gilda's Club Quad Cities is thrilled to announce exciting updates to its annual charity golf event, now set to take place at the beautiful Palmer Hills Golf Course in Bettendorf, IA. Golf Fore Gilda’s presented by Ascentra Credit Union will take place on Friday, May 3, 2024. The event promises a day of golf, fun, and fundraising in support of individuals and families in our community living with cancer.

The event will feature a best ball format, ensuring an enjoyable experience for golfers of all skill levels. Plus, with Palmer Hills' renowned rolling hills and challenging fairways, players are in for an exciting round of golf.

"We're thrilled to bring our annual golf outing to Palmer Hills Golf Course," said Lexi Bull, Development & Event Manager at Gilda's Club Quad Cities. "The new location, coupled with exciting experiences and interactive fun at each hole, promises to make this year's event more memorable than ever before."

Registration for the event is now open at $100 per golfer or $400 per foursome. Participants will receive lunch, a golf cart, access to the beverage cart, a swag bag, and entry into various contests and prizes, including awards for the overall winner and hole contests.

For those who prefer putting to driving, Gilda's Club Quad Cities is excited to introduce an experience like no other on The Forge at Palmer Hills, a unique 18-hole putting experience. The Forge Putting Course offers four massive putting surfaces with 18 engaging holes, perfect for golfers and thrill-seekers alike. Putting green experience tickets are available for $30 per golfer or $120 per foursome.

"After a day on the course, participants can enjoy a delicious luncheon featuring burgers on the grill, along with awards and more fun," added Bull. "It's a day of non-stop fun and support for those in our community living with cancer. This past year alone, we have seen a 61% increase in those attending programs. With an increase in demand for services, community support is more crucial than ever.”

Join Gilda's Club Quad Cities on May 3rd for a day of golf, putting, and community support at Palmer Hills Golf Course. Together, we can make a difference for those facing cancer in our community.
