The folks at Kitch-enAid, presenting sponsor of the Senior PGA Championship at The Golf Club at Harbor Shores, are bringing a unique combination to the event: cooking and golf.
KitchenAid will engage golf and culinary fans in the KitchenAid Fairway Club, the KitchenAid Gallery on 16 and the KitchenAid Gallery on 10 at Harbor Shores during Champ-ionship Week, which begins Tuesday.
Located adjacent to the No. 1 tee, the KitchenAid Fairway Club will give championship attendees the opportunity to see live cooking demonstrations from celebrity and local chefs, touch and feel KitchenAid products, have pictures taken with the Alfred S. Bourne Championship Trophy and compete in a daily closest-to-the-pin competition on a golf simulator of Harbor Shores Hole No. 7 to benefit Cook for the Cure, KitchenAid’s partnership with Susan G.
