The Players tournament is just over a month away - do you have your tickets yet?
 
For those of you planning to attend The Players (March 10-13), please click HERE to purchase tickets and use the promotional code GOLF - $40 of the cost of each ticket will be allocated back to Beth El The Beaches Synagogue. 
 
A few answers to your questions:
 
- Each ticket purchased is date specific (not like in previous years where you could use a ticket for any day) so it does require some advance planning.
 
- The tickets are $80 each for Thursday and Sunday and $90 each for Friday and Saturday (face value) so they aren’t really discounted.
 
- The promotion expires on February 25.
