Hey Golfers!
Friday is almost here, and we're ready for another great Turkeys, Birdies & Brews! We've got plenty of food, cold drinks, some pretty awesome raffle baskets, and a full day of golf ahead of us.
Here's what you need to know before Friday!
First things first...
9:00 AM - Registration opens
10:30 AM - Shotgun start
Come hungry! We'll have donuts, coffee, biscuits and gravy, Bloody Marys, and breakfast Jello-O Shots ready to go starting at 9 AM.
And don't worry about packing lunch. We've got you covered all day!
  • 2 cans of Keg Grove beer per golfer
  • Fireball for everyone, thanks to The Country Squire in Hudson
  • Polish sausage and hot dogs available on the course throughout the day
  • DP Dough calzones and Jimmy John's Sandwiches making their way around the course
  • Snacks to grab at registration
  • 2 cigars per golfer, courtesy of Smoker's Den
  • Pub Club swag and ball markers from Fairway Sloth
Don't leave when the golf is over!
We'll wrap up the day with a smoked pulled pork dinner, complete with mac & cheese and baked beans! While we're eating, we'll announce our on-course game winners, flight winners, and the lucky winners of our five raffle baskets.
You certainly won't leave hungry!
Mulligans! Because we all need a little help sometimes.
$80 per team, and you can only purchase ONE package per team.
Here's what you get:
  • 4 Mulligans (1 per person)
  • 4 Tosses (1 per person)
  • 36 inches of string to cut and use however your team wants
One important rule: Mulligans, tosses, and string CANNOT be used on any of the on-course game holes!
You can purchase your package Friday morning at registration or get it taken care of ahead of time here:
Let's talk raffle baskets!
We've got FIVE baskets this year with approximately $2,245 worth of prizes. And we've made it pretty easy to get in on the fun!
Here's how raffle ticket pricing works:
  • $5 gets you 1 ticket
  • $20 gets you 6 tickets
  • $30 gets you 10 tickets
You can put all your tickets toward one basket or spread them across all five. Your tickets, your choice!
Here's what you could be taking home:
⛳ GOLF GOD | Approx. $500 Value
A Vessel Slim golf bag, $100 Dick's Sporting Goods gift card, $50 Merna Tap gift card, a round of golf at El Paso Golf Club, Tito's, Bloody Mary mix, and more. Your golf game might not improve, but at least you'll look like you know what you're doing!
💜 GET OUT OF JAIL FREE, LADIES! | $650+ Value
Guys, if you've spent a little too much time on the golf course lately, here's your chance to get back in her good graces! A gorgeous purple YETI packed with spa treatments, beauty services, skincare, wine, and all kinds of goodies she'll love.
Ladies, whether you're golfing or not, you're going to want this one for yourself!
🏈 TAILGATE | $490+ Value
Redbird game tickets, a YETI cooler, beer, gift certificates, grilling accessories, and TWO High Haven bag chairs. Pretty much everything you need for a great tailgate, minus someone to do the grilling!
🔥 SMOKES & COZY NIGHTS | Approx. $210 Value
A Solo Stove Mesa XL, cozy blanket, wine, s'mores supplies, and roasting forks, and TWO High Haven bag chairs. Perfect for those chilly evenings when sitting around a fire sounds a whole lot better than doing anything productive.
🌿 LIGHT IT UP & CHILL | $395+ Value
$300 in products from High Haven, Willie's THC Social Tonic, munchies, and TWO High Haven bag chairs. We'll let you figure out how to spend your afternoon with this one!
We've attached photos of all five baskets so you can check them out before Friday.
Raffle tickets will ONLY be sold at the outing on Friday, and winners will be drawn from our golfers.
And there's one more raffle...
🥃 Our ONLINE-ONLY Bourbon Raffle!
Fiala Brothers Brewing & Beer Hall has put together a pretty fantastic bourbon package, and we're raffling it off separately.

Tickets are

  • $5 gets you 1 ticket
  • $20 gets you 6 tickets
  • $30 gets you 10 tickets

and you can purchase them online through NOON on October 31.

One new thing this year... THE BELL!
We've added a bell just off the 13th green.
Once your group has finished putting and CLEARED the green, ring the bell so the group behind you knows it's safe to hit.
Please don't forget to ring it! We'd prefer everyone leave with the same number of teeth they arrived with.
And the reason we're all getting together...
As much as we love a good golf outing, the real reason behind Turkeys, Birdies & Brews is to help provide Thanksgiving dinners for 125 families served by the Boys & Girls Club of Bloomington-Normal.
Every mulligan package, raffle ticket, sponsorship, and golfer helps make that possible, and we couldn't do it without you.
A special thank you to Prairie State Bank & Trust, our Presenting Title Sponsor, and all of the businesses and individuals who have stepped up to support this event.

Thank You to Our Sponsors

2026 Turkeys, Birdies & Brews wouldn't happen without the generous support of these businesses.
