This year’s Peoria Chamber of Commerce $10 Million Shootout Golf Classic will help raise funds for the Peoria Unified School District MET Professional Academy (Medical, Engineering & Technology) assisting them in providing students exceptional programs offering the opportunity to work in business settings with industry professionals. 

The tournament is being held at Trilogy Golf Club in Vistancia. The golf classic is a 4-person scramble format beginning with a 12:00 Noon shotgun start and culminating with the awards presentation and a delicious Mexican buffet dinner.

In addition to the fun round of golf, there will be multiple on-course games, great raffle prizes plus the $10 Million Shootout and a 3-putt Putting Contest with a $30,000 prize! You can watch Mark Hamer sink his putt at last year’s tournament to win $30,000 at www.peoriachamber.com.

The $10 Million Shootout takes place immediately following the completion of the tournament round. Ten lucky golfers are randomly drawn for the chance to take one shot for a hole-in-one and win ONE MILLION DOLLARS! Every golfer receives an entry ticket with Super Card purchasers receiving additional entries.

Everyone is entered in the 3-putt putting contest for the $30,000 prize.  During tournament play each golfer gets a chance to make a 10-foot putt.  All golfers making the 10-foot putt then try to make a 30-ft putt, those making the 30-ft. putt get their chance to make the final 50-ft and win $30,000! It’s a winner take all contest, so if multiple golfers sink the 50-footer they will cut cards from an un-opened deck of cards with the high card winning the full $30,000.
