&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have been using the event module for approximately 2 1/2 years for all types of events and include (2) golf tournaments.&amp;nbsp; I agree with Staci that there are things that could be changed but overall once you get the hang of it, you can pull wonderful information from the event module.&amp;nbsp; We do not track the cart numbers as the golf course assigns them and we don&amp;#39;t get that information so , we use the more button and assign team numbers.&amp;nbsp; This helps us keep all our players aligned properly.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We would be happy to help you with any questions you may have.&amp;nbsp; You can reach me at &lt;a href="mailto:katie.carr@nhhn.org"&gt;katie.carr@nhhn.org&lt;/a&gt; or 910-796-7962.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am attempting to use the special event module for our upcoming golf outing.&amp;nbsp; I haven&amp;#39;t been formally trained on it but did use it for our dinner dance.&amp;nbsp; I found it a bit cumbersome.&amp;nbsp; Does anyone have any words of wisdom or encouragement before I begin?&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;d appreciate it&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hi Margaret,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;I have used the event module for our 2 day golf tournament for the last three years.&amp;nbsp; It actually isn&amp;#39;t all bad.&amp;nbsp; There are a few things I would&amp;nbsp;like to see change but overall, it has been a time saver for me.&amp;nbsp; I use the seating chart to do our cart assignments each day.&amp;nbsp; I set up the various sponsorship packages so we can view what packages have been taken and what we still have available.&amp;nbsp; Also, if you know that ABC Company or John Doe is taking out a particular package, then you can show it as being committed until you receive the check;&amp;nbsp;we can run a report of the committed vs. paid on the sponsorship dollars.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;If you have any direct questions, please feel free to contact me directly and I will help you as best as I can.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;
