Become a Volunteer!
Please consider joining us at the 13th annual Longs Drugs Challenge (LDC).  Our generous volunteers work tirelessly at everything from traffic control and manning the will call booth to interacting with top LPGA players as a marshal or walking scorer.

As a volunteer you will not only receive great benefits but, you will also have the opportunity to see some of the World’s best women golfers up-close, and be a part of this exciting new East Bay tradition.

To volunteer at the tournament you must be willing to work a minimum of four shifts
(1/2 day = one shift) and purchase the official LDC Volunteer Uniform Package (windshirt,
golf shirt, and headwear) for $70.

We invite you to consider not only working the week of the tournament but also in the weeks prior, as we have many pre-tournament projects that we need volunteer assistance for. Please recruit your friends for this tremendous opportunity.
