Trooper Shawn Blanton Scholarship Golf Tournament

April 11, 2025
We are approaching the time we traditionally have our annual golf tournament, the tournament is usually held in June. The date for the golf tournament is Friday, June 13, 2025 at Sequoyah National Golf Club. We hope you can place this date on your calendar and join us again this year. We value your support over the years and look forward to seeing you on June 13th. This will be our 17th year hosting this event in an effort to raise money for the scholarship that we feel can be, and is truly a blessing to the student athletes that have received them, and will continue to receive them in the future. We have been very fortunate to be able to increase the number and amount of the scholarships over the past years, and we hope to continue that trend. Scholarship announcement letters are sent to Cherokee, Clay, Graham, Haywood, Jackson, Macon and Swain counties and Cherokee Central High School.
The tournament continues to grow each year, and we are grateful for your support! We are reaching capacity early and having to tell teams we are full and begin a wait list. Please let us know if you are interested in participating as we anticipate maxing out again this year and don’t want you to miss an opportunity to participate.
We are reaching out to you early in an effort to secure your support for the event this year. The golf tournament is our only fundraising effort and we are trying to make the most of it, that’s where you come in. We will contact you as we get closer to the date, we would love to have you share your sponsorship with us at your earliest convenience, so we can get an idea of how June 13th is shaping up.
