4th Annual Nashville Golf Open – May 2 – 5

The Nashville Golf and Athletic Club is hosting the 4th annual Nashville Golf Open, a Web.com event sponsored by the PGA Tour. Tournament dates have again moved several weeks earlier this year, and the event will be held May 2 through May 5. 

Volunteer support is critical to the maintenance operation. Ther routine during tournament week relies heavily on a large morning crew. Afternoons are a bit more laid back, with fewer volunteers needed. Morning shifts are scheduled to begin at 5:00AM and usually last until 8:00AM. Afternoon shifts are between 4:00PM and 7:00PM. Volunteers are welcome beginning Monday, April 29 through Sunday, May 5. Help is most needed mornings of Thursday May 2, through Sunday, May 5. Volunteer activities are variable and wide-ranging. Many thanks to those who have volunteered in previous years! Equipment support has been outstanding as well, special thanks to those who have helped and are continuing to provide mowers, vehicles etc.

This year  Mr. Paul Vermeulen will be back at Nashville Golf and Athletic Club. He has recently been promoted to the Vice President of Agronomy on the PGA Tour. He is a wealth of knowledge, and will be helping to oversee maintenance activities at the course while on site during advance week, and the first half of tournament week.

The Nashville Golf and Athletic Club is happy to provide free food, free tickets, free t-shirts, and a free round of golf to volunteers. A “Volunteer of the Year” award will also be presented at the conclusion of the tournament.
