⛳️  DUFFY SCRAMBLE 🏌️
Thursday, June 11th 2026 at 1PM

The spring weather is calling, and the Second Annual Duffy Scramble is the perfect answer! The Duffy PTO is gearing up for our final fundraising push of the school year and we’d love your support.

This year, Tumble Brook Country Club will host the Duffy Scramble on June 11. The event will begin with a 1:00 PM shotgun start. Arrive early to check in, warm up on the driving range, or practice your putting before the round begins. 

Golfers of all levels are welcome! 
Sign up as an individual and we’ll place you with a group or register a full foursome. 
Invite fellow Duffy parents, family members, friends, clients- anyone who enjoys a great day on the course is welcome to join.
Not a golfer but still want to join the fun? Come for the dinner and social hour at 6:00 PM!


Sponsorship opportunities!

There are also many opportunities to support the event as a sponsor.

Showcase your business with your logo featured on event signage, or become the exclusive sponsor for our golf carts, dinner, or on-course contests.

Families and businesses can also sponsor a tee box to show their support.


Examples of last year's tee boxes are shown below:

We can't wait to see you in June!
