-Weekend-Whaddup- 10/24/25

Friends don’t let friends pay full price!
Registration for Carpenter Community Charter’s Second Annual Golf Tournament closes @ Midnight, this Monday 10/26. After that, the price is $249!
Please join us on Monday, November 16th at the beautiful Braemar Country Club for a fun-filled day of golf, food, drinks, prizes, and more golf! Sign up with friends and make your own foursome, or sign up on your own and we will put you in a great group of fellow golfers and school supporters. Everyone is welcome, Carpenter or not! Go to our dedicated website to register and learn more about everything happening that day.
We are reaching out into the community so we can continue to raise needed funds for enrichment programs in our great neighborhood school. We have 950 kids, 750 families, and a great group of parent volunteers, that year after year work to keep our school humming along. Carpenter is an integral part of Studio City and a vital piece of this vibrant community. Even individual families have jumped on board and are sponsoring the tournament this year. Do you have or are you an accountant, dentist, chiropractor or insurance agent who would like to sponsor the event? Do you know someone else who might benefit from a Carpenter introduction?
We’d love to have them!
