About The Golf Marathon
The Golf Fights Cancer Golf Marathon is an unbelievable day of camaraderie where golfers of all skill levels are sponsored to play 100 holes in one day to positively impact the lives of cancer patients and their families.
Golfers are challenged to raise $4,000 each as part of this campaign. As part of Camp Casco’s Golfing For Good team, these funds will go directly towards giving kids affected by cancer the chance to just be kids.
Why We Golf
Camp Casco provides free, unforgettable summer camp experiences for children affected by cancer.
Thanks to your fundraising and dedication, these kids get to climb, swim, laugh, and form lifelong friendships in a place where they truly belong.
Every golfer who reaches their goal will send two deserving kids to Camp Casco in summer 2025!

Each golfer will have an assigned golf cart and starting hole. This is to help with initial distribution of players over 36 holes. After your first hole, you may scatter as you please.
Holes are not necessarily played in sequence. You might find a three-hole circuit to play for a series of rotations, and then wander off to another hole.
You’ll have the option to play two golf balls per hole with preferred lies and count both towards your tally. Putts "inside the leather" are gimmies.
