It Takes a Parish

We feel so blessed to be able to host this event every year.  The money raised will go to the ministries and charities we support.  Their work never takes a break and the funds raised are always put to great use by the loyal and caring volunteers.  Thank you for being part of the Saint Brigid Catholic Church community.  “IT TAKES A PARISH!”

Activity Registrations – Golf, Pickleball & Tennis

All registrations for sports activities and dinner tickets can be accomplished online using one of the links.  All sports activities include dinner, so there is no need to purchase dinner tickets unless you would like a guest to join you.

  • Bobblehead Bonus – Each golfer, pickleball and tennis player registered by February 12 will receive one free bobblehead depicting our former pastor Monsignor Paul Reynolds, dressed in Ordinary Time vestments.  The bobbleheads will be included in the SWAG bags distributed on May 13.  Additional bobbleheads are available for sale on our website from January 8 until February 12 at $25 each.  See the Important Docs box for a link to the bobblehead artwork.
  • Golf – The Golf Scramble usually sells out within 30 days of going on-sale. We also offer a 9-hole activity at River Pines called Nine-n-Dine, which includes dinner at the CC Roswell clubhouse.  Foursomes interested in playing in the 18-hole golf scramble should sign up early to assure a place.  The foursome leader makes one registration and one payment for the group.  If foursomes do not fill the available spots, we will accept individual registrations, subject to availability.
  • PicklePalooza and Tennis Disco Doubles – There’s a party happening on the courts, and you can be part of it.  Be sure to bring along your “dancing sneakers.”  Both of these sports have morning sessions.  They include a Mimosa Meet-Up, contests, competition, lunch and dinner. There is an afternoon session of Pickleball (no lunch included).
  • Early Bird Discount – Tennis and Pickleball players are encouraged to register and pay by Monday February 12, 2024 to save $20 per person.

Arrival — Swag Bags by Lily’s Pharmacy

Clubhouse – Locker Rooms Open

Men’s and Women’s locker facilities are available before and after athletic activities.

Clubhouse – Registration & Check-In

All Golfers, Tennis players, Pickleball players, and Evening Dinner Ticket buyers are encouraged to complete all transactions online, in advance of the event day.  The Golf, Tennis, and Pickleball packages are being offered on an all-inclusive basis, so there is no need to make additional purchases upon arrival at the Country Club of Roswell.  Volunteers will be available at a Registration Desk to answer any questions.

Donations – The Matching Fund

Each year, the Men of Saint Brigid select one local ministry to benefit from donations made specifically to The Matching Fund.  Matching pledges are made in advance of the event and donations made on May 13 are designated for the Matching Fund.  This year, we have selected the Saint Brigid conference of the St. Vincent de Paul Society.  The St. Vincent de Paul ministry is an organization of parishioners who seek to be totally present and bring Christ’s love to those who are suffering.  The ministry provides hope and help to those in need so they may find stability and move toward self-sufficiency.  Please see the Important Docs box for a link to make a donation.  Thank you.

Evening – DJ & Video Boards

Our DJ will update the crowd on Golf, Tennis, and Pickleball results, make announcements and crank tunes.  Video boards in the ballroom will scroll messages, display sponsor recognition and show sports results. Results are posted as soon as scores are compiled.

Evening – Dinner Tickets for Food + Fun – 6:00 pm

A limited supply of Evening Dinner tickets are available due to clubhouse capacity.  Buyers may participate in the Wine Tasting, Whiskey Experience, Dinner, and Evening Activities.
