The Sagebrush Classic kicks off on Friday, July 17th, with 52 teams competing for gross and net prizes in a 18-hole best ball golf tournament on the private course at Broken Top.  The festivities continue on Saturday with the Classic Feast, outdoors at Broken Top, where guests will enjoy the Chef’s culinary artistry, hand crafted beers from Deschutes Brewery, a variety of regional wines and dancing to live music under the stars.

The Sagebrush is truly a great event, see what other’s are saying about it.

“If you didn’t already know, this event brings together chefs from ALL OVER THE WORLD…in one place…at one time…all that great food at once. Ah.” – Portland Food and Drink.com

“In my experience, when Deschutes puts on a special event such as a beer release or a special dinner they throw out all of the stops so I am sure this event will be no exception to the rule.” – Travel Oregon

“Each year, the Sagebrush Classic invites a talented line-up of chefs from around the world to help raise money for numerous non-profit organizations throughout Central Oregon.” – The Oregonian

“Central Oregon’s most upscale food event” – Oregon Restaurant Association
