The group tees up an epic golf tournament and concert weekend for mental health awareness
Godsmack frontman Sully Erna is bringing his signature intensity from the stage to the greens with the launch of Sully Erna’s First Annual Smack This! Scramble on Sunday, September 7th at Mohegan Sun Golf Club.
This isn’t your average celebrity golf tournament—it’s a full-throttle rock and roll weekend that combines Erna’s love of golf with his commitment to mental health advocacy, benefiting the Scars Foundation’s vital work in mental health awareness.
The exclusive experience kicks off Saturday, September 6th at 8 pm with Sully Erna – The Voice of Godsmack live at Mohegan Sun’s Sun Patio, where fans can witness the raw power that has sold over 20 million albums worldwide and scored three consecutive No. 1 debuts on the Billboard 200.
The real magic happens on Sunday, when golf enthusiasts get the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to tee off alongside the rock legend himself. Limited to just 100 players, this intimate scramble tournament offers unprecedented access to one of rock’s most respected frontmen.
“I’ve been playing music since I was three years old, but golf has become my other passion,” says Erna. “Combining that with supporting mental health awareness through the Scars Foundation makes this event something really special. Whether you’re a rocker, a golfer, or someone who believes in breaking down mental health stigmas, this weekend is for you.”
The event cost $1,000 per person and includes tournament entry with golf cart and range balls; breakfast and lunch on the course; on-course beverage stations; one ticket to the Saturday concert; and access to the exclusive Scars Foundation 7th Anniversary Celebration.
Following the 10 am shotgun start, players will gather for the Scars Foundation 7th Anniversary Celebration in the banquet hall, featuring a silent auction, special gifts, guest speakers, hors d’oeuvres, and drinks. This celebration honors seven years of the foundation’s mission to provide resources for people sharing their “battle scars of life” and promoting the belief that “we are all imperfectly perfect.”
One hundred percent of proceeds benefit the Scars Foundation’s critical work supporting those facing anxiety, depression, trauma, suicidal thoughts, and PTSD.
