The lingering summer weather makes it an even better time to enjoy the Kroger Queen City Championship presented by P&G at TPC River’s Bend this weekend.
Along with featuring 144 of the world’s best golfers from the LPGA, the new venue is host to incredible fan amenities, including fun brand interactions with numerous sponsors.
“We are thrilled and proud to have this strong lineup of business sponsors in this community come together to support women’s golf,” said Kate Meyer, vice president of Home, Health & Beauty Merchandising for Kroger. “So many of our sponsors continually ask how they can elevate the event and make this not one to miss for both the LPGA Players and fans – we are so excited for what’s to come this year.”
Fans can meet the adorable “Kroji” mascots for photo ops and unique one-on-one experiences, plus enjoy Kroger Freshest Putt, a long putt competition with a chance to win a $250 Kroger gift card, sample brands and play a golf billiards game. Guests can also enjoy the Kroger “Our Brands” concessions and family meal deal, ensuring affordability for families at the concession stands
Pampers, from P&G, is once again hosting the “Pampers Family Center” which includes a mom’s room and space for parents to take a break with their kids, plus, they are bringing back changing stations throughout the tournament grounds, so families don’t need to worry about a diaper change interrupting their time at the tournament.
Charmin is back as the Official Sponsor of Hole #2, and this year Bounty, the Quicker Picker Upper, has a Caddie Program to help caddies keep players’ equipment clean and dry throughout the tournament.
