Lake Toxaway, NC  -  You'd think that Nascar and golf would go together about much as peanut butter and ketchup...not so much.  But when you take a past Truck Series Champion with a passion for giving back, look out...anything is possible!

Past Champoin of the Nascar Truck Series, Mike Skinner and his wife Angie hosted their 2016 Skinner Round-Up this year at the beautiful Mountain Falls Luxury Motorcoach Resort up in the western North Carolina mountains.  The 2-day event raised over $220,000 for Hope for the Warriors - a non-profit supporting post 9/11 veterans and their families.

Mobile Golf Events had the privilege helping raise over $500 through the Mobile 19th Hole - Closest-to-the-Pin contest at the Round-Up event on Thursday.  Then on Friday during the golf outing portion of the event, MGE founder and PGA Pro, Brett Gorney ran a "Play with the Pro" hole that raised an additional $1,100.  Gorney stated, "What an honor it was to be a part of this event!  Mike and Angie along with the Hope for the Warriors team were so much fun to work with!  Handing them over $1,500 in donations to help support their cause was such a blessing!  We can't wait for next year's event!"

Atlanta, GA -  A bittersweet goodbye to the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field has opened the door to a multitude of events being held on the actual field...event a beer fest with a golf simulator!

On October 8th, Atlanta Beer Festivals held their 2016 Great Atlanta Beer Fest on the field at The Ted.  Over 30 breweries were represented and served up tastings of over 100 different beers to over 5,000 event attendees.  One of the nations largest 'micro-breweries' and Atlanta native Sweetwater Brewing, partnered with Mobile Golf Events to present the Sweetwater 19th Hole Par 3 Challenge. 

Contestants lined up to take their best shots at a 135 yard simulated par-3 contest for some great prizes offered up by Sweetwater.  Justin Menacker took the first prize of a private 'cask making' experience for 8 people.  Second place went to Zach Nichols who won a private tour and tasting for 8 and third place winner, Troy Beeler, walked away with a bag full of Sweetwater branded merchandise.  One other lucky winner on the day was Chris Koch.  Mobile Golf Events collected the names of every golfer who hit the green in regulation and drew one winner for a $100 gift card for Cobra-Puma Golf.
