As if a day on the green in the name of charity wasn't a good enough reason to take part in the South Wagga Rotary Charity Golf Day the organisers have added plenty of draw cards.
Those lucky (or skilled) enough to hit a hole in one on certain holes could win a car or thousands of dollars worth of white goods at the event on Friday March 22.
Organiser Kerry Flinn is sure the event will sell out this year and hopes someone can finally land a hole in one to win the car.
"It wasn't won last year and I'm hoping someone does win it," he said.
"There two chances to win a Mazda 2 thanks to Jupiter Motors and $5000 worth of white goods from The Good Guys."
A huge thanks to McDonalds who have been sponsoring this event for years along with Jupiter Motors and the Good Guys

If that isn't enough the dedicated team have also organised for Kevin Sheedy to spend the day on the green talking to golfers and speaking at the end of the day.
Kevin Sheedy is an AFL Hall of Fame Legend who played 929 games over 47 years. It's not just the golfers who can meet Kevin Sheedy, the general public are more than welcome to attend the event with presentations to take place around 5pm.
This year marks the 21st annual charity golf day and it's shaping up to be "bigger than ever."
Mr Flinn expects the teams to fill up quickly. Last year saw 36 teams take part and it's expected to hit the cap of 40 teams this year.
The event is a three-person ambrose with a shotgun start at 11am.
For more information or to register a team go to the South Wagga Rotary Facebook page for a registration form.
Registrations are now open and will be taken until the day or when the 40 teams cap is reached.
Organisers are hoping to beat the fundraising efforts of 2018 which saw $32,000 raised.
It isn't just the golf day which raises money but also the monster raffle which has eight major prizes up for grabs including five holidays.
The monster raffle is still running and will be drawn on the day. Tickets are available for purchase across Wagga now and will also be on sale on the day.
"Some of the prizes are incredible," Mr Flinn said.
"Every prize has been donated by our sponsors."
All money raised is donated to Ronald McDonald House and Country Hope.
