The other best part about this tournament? It's for a great cause- Meijer and the LPGA have teamed up with the Simply Give program to raise money to help battle food insecurity throughout West Michigan. A portion of your ticket purchase goes to help fund this program.

So what can you expect if you show up this weekend?

Usually sporting events are notoriously known for having extremely expensive food prices. But- not this one! In fact, there isn't a single item on the menu that costs more than $4. They also have SEVERAL items in the $1 category. So, showing up and having lunch won't break the bank and that's AMAZING.
