The annual TaylorMade/Pebble Beach Invitational Tournament is right around the corner! The dates for this year’s event are Thursday, November 21 through Sunday, November 24, and we need volunteers starting on Tuesday, the 22nd. Rounds are played at Spanish Bay, Spyglass, and Pebble Beach, with the final day being played only at Pebble Beach.

By providing hundreds of community volunteers for this tournament each year, the Monterey Kiwanis Club receives enough money from the Pebble Beach Foundation to fund the lion’s share of the financial support the Kiwanis provide to deserving projects benefiting children and youth  on the Monterey Peninsula.

There are a variety of roles available for volunteers at the tournament. Below is a list of job categories for which we need help and some basic information about what the work entails. Some jobs are only needed on the weekend, while some run all week, but we’ll take your help for whatever days/hours you are available.
