This year’s tourney will be played at a new location, the TPC/Cottonwood Valley Courses at the Las Colinas Four Seasons Resort and Club in Irving.
Also new this year is the Farrell Cup Challenge, a competition that features foursomes from parishes throughout the Diocese of Dallas playing the Cottonwood Valley course to take home bragging rights and a trophy.
In addition, an auction at the post day-of-play reception will feature the following items:
• Day of golf for three players, Bishop Farrell and PGA champion Lee Trevino
• Signed and framed piece containing three Masters Flags: One signed by Arnold Palmer, another signed by Jack Nicklaus and one with the hard-to- get Tiger Woods’ autograph
• Day at the NASCAR races at the Texas Motor Speedway
