Golf Ball Drop 2026

The Golf Ball Drop is back, and hundreds of golf balls are about to take flight!

Join Oakhill students, families, faculty, staff, alumni, grandparents, and friends on Friday, September 25 at 2:45 p.m. on Oakhill’s North Field for one of our most fun events leading up to the Helen Wills Golf Tournament.

With help from the Gladstone Fire Department, hundreds of numbered golf balls will be dropped from high above the North Field. Then we’ll watch to see where they land.

The ball that lands closest to the hole wins!

But every ball in the air does something even bigger: it helps support the experiences and opportunities that make an Oakhill a great place to learn for our students.

The other beauty of the Golf Ball Drop...

You don’t have to be a golfer to play.

Purchase a Golf Ball Drop entry, get your number, and join the fun. Parents, grandparents, alumni, faculty, staff, friends, and community members can all participate.

Friday, September 25 at 2:45 p.m.
