DFRC Blue-Gold Golf Classics

Every year, with the support of more than 125 sponsors, 350 golfers participate in two Blue-Gold All★Star Golf Classics. The tournaments are held in New Castle and Kent Counties during June and July. Participants are both Blue-Gold alumni and financial supporters of DFRC who help to raise funds and awareness for citizens with intellectual disABILITIES on a statewide basis. Each tournament is a full day of fun that includes a shotgun start in the captain's choice, lunch, awards, dinner, and numerous prizes. Over 40 golf committee volunteers work with the local business community in the participating counties to generate interest for their events. The tournaments have enjoyed enormous success for 30 years and have helped strengthen DFRC's presence throughout the state.
