The Twin Cities Chapter of the American Foundry Society (AFS) has been providing over $10,000 in educational funding each year to worthy metalcasting students in our region. This is made possible by generous golf sponsors like yourself who support the vision and growth of the foundry industry in the Midwest. In addition, annual advertisers benefit from exposure and local sales at www.afstwincities.org and nationally at www.afsinc.org (250/8,000 views monthly) when your advertisement is published on the website and in electronic newsletters.

Take advantage of the sponsor opportunities and register your foursome below or by completing this form with payment by FRIDAY, AUGUST 6th. This event has a longstanding reputation for great golf, awesome prizes, and loads of fun.
