Foursomes and individual golfers can register now for this fun day at Wee Burn Country Club in Darien. Proceeds support The Maritime Aquarium’s efforts to connect cash-strapped schools that need subsidies for Aquarium programs and for busing.

Even more enticing is the chance to win a 2016 BMW 228i xDrive Convertible made available by BMW of Darien and valued at $38,000. Sink a hole-in-one on Wee Burn’s par-3 7th hole and drive home in the sleek luxury sportscar. That would be hitting a perfect drive to win a perfect drive.

Two other holes have prizes during the Aquarium event: two roundtrip airlines tickets for anywhere in the continental U.S.; and a $500 Callaway gift card.

The Maritime Golf Classic includes carts, a barbecue lunch, refreshments, post-play hors d’oeuvres and dinner, a silent auction and other fantastic prizes. Registration/bag drop begins at 10:30 a.m. and lunch opens at 11 a.m., with a 12:30 p.m. shotgun start.

Opportunities range from $10,000 as naming sponsor with two foursomes and two hole sponsorships to $1,000 as an individual player or $1,000 as a hole sponsor.

Chairman of the Golf Classic is Charlie Hinnant of Rowayton, a member of the Aquarium’s Board of Advisors.
