What better way is there to spend a Friday, then hitting the links and playing in a golf tournament?  Registration is now open for foursomes who would like to play in the annual Emerald City Classic Golf Tournament on Friday June 3, 2011 at Woodcrest Golf Course.

The tournament kicks off the annual Oz-Stravaganza! weekend and features 18 holes of golf with a 9:00 am shotgun start.  Players will have the opportunity to win $10,000 by hitting a hole in one, and many other prizes will be up for grabs at the tournament.  The golfing will be followed by a buffet lunch, silent auction, raffles and more. 

The proceeds from this year’s tournament will go to support the on-going Oz-Stravaganza! activities and to help promote tourism in Madison CountyMadison County Tourism, Inc. is proud to partner with the Oz-Stravaganza! committee to host the 2011 Emerald City Classic.  People travel from across the country to Chittenango to celebrate the life and works of our native son, L. Frank Baum.  Oz-Stravaganza! is part of an overall great summer of events in Madison County. 

Tourism is one of the largest industries in New York State and provides employment opportunities for over 3,000 of our residents. Visitors to Madison County spent over $73 million in the county last year and the tourism industry contributed over $4.5 million in taxes to the county     coffers.  The tourism industry saves the average tax paying household $150 each year in county taxes.

Cost to participate is $65 a person and $260 for the entire foursome.  Registration forms may be downloaded at www.oz-stravaganza.com or you can call Madison County Tourism at 315-684-7320 to register as well.
