TESTIMONIAL

"I worked with Gaston County Tourism Development during the 2017 Gary Koch Invitational hosted by Auburn University and University of Kentucky. I had to work remotely during the planning stages of the event. I requested that we incorporate live scoring for the event, which required several additional volunteers to assist around the golf course. The Gaston County team provided me with all the resources I needed to run an elite college event. We are excited about returning in 2018."

Joan Alexander, Director of Golf Operations Men's and Women's Golf, Auburn University
