ROANOKE, TEXAS – More than twenty site directors who hosted qualifying events associated with the 2006 Pinnacle Exceptional Driver Championship (PEDC) are eligible for a $25,000 prize.
To have their names entered into a special drawing, PEDC site directors had to have conducted 2006 qualifiers with a minimum of 72 paid entries.
The $25,000 winner will be determined during the PEDC finals, scheduled for Nov. 8-11 at Laughlin Ranch Golf Club in Laughlin, Nevada.
