Trooper Shawn Blanton Scholarship Golf Tournament

March 28, 2023

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 92022 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 9th.  This will be our 15th  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.  We have also spread the giving around and we now have winners from every county in Western North Carolina.

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.  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 9th is shaping up.  The tournament is limited to 30 teams, please sign up early to secure your participation.

While we did not have a golf tournament in 2020, scholarships were still distributed to high school seniors in the Western region.  We wanted to keep the tradition of helping young ladies as they begin this new and exciting phase of their life.  We all know how much Shawn loved softball, it was important for us to continue the tradition of distributing the scholarships in 2020.  Your continued support is appreciated, and we need your support more than ever this year!

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 18th is shaping up.  The tournament is limited to 30 teams, please sign up early to secure your participation.
