The Brevard County Marine Corps League Detachment 513 will host its second annual charity golf tournament on Saturday, March 21, 2026, starting at 8 a.m. with a shotgun start at Duran Golf Club, located at 7032 Stadium Parkway in Viera. The event will use a scramble/best ball format and is open to participants seeking to support local causes. Proceeds will directly benefit veterans, community groups, and programs like Toys for Tots and local Title 1 schools.
Heather Betz, an associate member of the detachment, said the funds will also cover free color and honor guard services for funerals and events across Brevard County. The tournament aims to raise money for supply drives at Title 1 schools, assistance for veterans, and support for the local animal shelter. Betz emphasized the event’s focus on giving back to the community through tangible programs.
The tournament will take place at Duran Golf Club, a popular venue in Viera known for its course design and community events. The club’s address is 7032 Stadium Parkway, and the event will follow standard golf tournament protocols. No additional fees beyond the entry cost will be charged for participation, according to organizers.
This year’s event follows the success of the first tournament, which raised funds for similar initiatives. The Marine Corps League Detachment 513 has no plans to expand the event beyond its current scope, focusing instead on maintaining its role as a local fundraiser. The tournament will conclude with a closing ceremony at the club, though specific details about post-tournament activities remain unannounced.
