2024 NGC Cup: One for the History Books

What. A. Day!  💙 NGC Cup 💚

The 2024 edition of the NGC Cup is in the history books and we are certain it is one that will be remembered for years to come. Thank you to everyone who came out yesterday to make it an absolutely epic day! Our love of golf as a golf family is what NGC is all about and yesterday truly showed that. Thank you to all the pro shop, clubhouse and course staff who helped make yesterday amazing. And the biggest thank you to Joe for navigating the intricacies of MD state liquor law and Alisha for bringing the absolutely incredible energy, Songbyrd crew, and setup that made the 2024 edition our best NGC Cup ever.

The generosity and giving spirit of all our members was on full display with both the mountain of donated refreshments that brought to life the MGA BYO bar and with the cash tips for charity! In the end, we were able to collect and donate $525 directly to the Lapan Sunshine Foundation.

When it came to the golf, excitement and good vibes energized each match as players wrapped their minds around Pinehurst Scotch (while enjoying scotch?) and every hole counted towards the final Blue vs. Green tally. When all the points had been counted, Team Green reigned supreme with a final score of 109.5 to 124.5 — Green has earned its place in the NGC Cup color battle!

In the side-contests, laughs and cheers abounded! Mr. Hanpeter got us off to an electric start with a perfect cluster putt, the necessity of walkie-talkies was revealed, and a Truck Bed chip-in joined the ranks of NGC legend.

Cluster Putt Champion – Mike Hanpeter – $50
#10 Knockout Shootout Champion – DJ Low Japan – $100
#10 Knockout Shootout Runner-Up – Leo Goff – $30
#10 Knockout Shootout Runner-Up – Nathaniel Burgess – $30
#10 Knockout Shootout Runner-Up – James Hsiao – $30
Truck Chip Victor + Hole out bonus – James Hsiao – $75
Closest to the Pin #3 – Matt Nolan (11’7″) – $50
Closest to the Pin #6 – Sam Bowmer (1’11”) – $50
Closest to the Pin #15 – Kevin Gates (10’2″) – $50
Closest to the Pin #18 – Clay Thatcher (12’3″) – $50
