The SOMA Golf-a-thon is an annual golf tournament held in late September at Stow Acres Country Club, in Stow, Ma. Participants, who can register as individuals or teams, play 72 holes of golf in one day over Stow Acres’ two award-winning 18-hole golf courses. Participants collect pledges from friends and family to support their efforts to raise money for SOMA. The event also includes a Pre-event cocktail party, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and prizes for participants. The event culminates with a one-hole playoff named after a current Special Olympics athlete called the Tyler Lagasse Hall-of-Fame Golf Challenge.
