Our annual gathering of GOMACO customers, suppliers, distributors, association members, media representatives and friends getting together for two great days of fun and golf. Events are geared for all skill levels, so everyone is encouraged to take part! This year's event is September 18 and 19. Join us for one day, or both days.
Friendship & Fun At #31!
We've all been waiting the whole year for this, and it's finally here! GOMACO Invitational #31, the concrete construction industry's most unique golf tournament, has been scheduled for September 18 and 19 in Ida Grove, Iowa.
This is your official invitation to join us for GOMACO Invitational #31, our annual appreciation event. We hope you will register today for two days of activities, friendship and excitement.
Browse through this web site, and learn about the activities on the schedule just for you, including three big golfing events: the 2-Person Putting Tournament, 3-Person Contractors' Shoot-Out (exclusively for GOMACO customers), and the 4-Person, 18-hole Scramble Tournament on four area courses (Ida Grove, Holstein, Mapleton and Odebolt). GOMACO Invitational events are geared for golfers of all skill levels, so everyone has a good chance of going home with cash and prizes, and you will absolutely have a great time!
On top of the golfing excitement, we'll have some of the best food the Midwest has to offer, including aged rib-eye steaks at the Pride of Iowa Steak Fry on Tuesday, and a special tournament banquet on Wednesday.
at #31 is Peter "The Trick Shot Master" Jöhncke. He will delight our guests with the most unusual and extreme ways to hit a golf ball. The fast-paced show will feature Peter's very unusual golf clubs, such as a three-headed three-wood, a driver with a link chain for a shaft, a four-headed four-wood, a nine-foot driver, and his prehistoric driver "Big Erma." Don't miss his show at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, September 18, on the Ida Grove #1 tee box.

The Invitational is also supported by our many sponsors. From event prizes, to food and refreshments, your contributions are a part of what makes this event special.
