Brunch & Brews
Each registration comes with entry to a local brunch buffet from the mastermind chefs at Salt Face. We’ll also have a cash bar for those who want to celebrate (or lick their putting wounds) with signature Salt Face Brewing beers or cocktails!
All for a Good Cause
Proceeds from the Mountain Strong Mini Classic support Mountain Strong, a volunteer-led nonprofit focused on long-term recovery and community impact in Western North Carolina. Every swing helps us invest in the people and places that make our mountain towns strong.
