Thank you for joining us November 22-24, 2024 for the SWFL Celebrity Golf Invitational at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point and Spa in the beautiful Naples, Florida area. This three-day event benefiting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital teed off with Friday's Pairings Party for golfers and their guests, followed by the St. Jude Jam. The golf tournament on Saturday and Sunday paired each foursome with a celebrity player. Saturday night’s St. Jude Soirée included red-carpet appearances by tournament celebrities, live and silent auctions, dinner and entertainment. The weekend concluded on Sunday afternoon with an awards luncheon for all golfers.
