What: The first annual Pinecrest Academy Golf Scramble will take place at the beautiful Hawks Ridge Golf Club in Ball Ground, Georgia.

After a shotgun start, players will enjoy stopping by hors d’oeuvres tents and competing for the Closest to the Pin, Longest Drive and Par 3 contests. If a player is skilled enough to hit a hole in one on the 16th hole, he or she will be driving a new car, courtesy of Billy Howell Ford Lincoln.
