Harmony Jackson Memorial Golf Classic
For the past twenty-four years, First Southeast Bank of Harmony has partnered with the Harmony Golf Club to host the Jackson Memorial Golf Classic. This fundraiser was created in memory of former FSEB employee, Robert Jackson.
This event is so much more than a golf tournament! The classic offers both golfers and non-golfers opportunities to support local organizations through the golf tournament, side games on the course, fun raffles, a steak dinner, a silent auction, and a live auction. According to the tournament director and President/CEO of First Southeast Bank, Chris Skaalen, “the proceeds from the event benefit a scholarship fund for local seniors as well as various other non-profits, including the Harmony Golf Club Capital Improvement Fund.”
The tournament typically raises in excess of $15,000 annually. This year, it is proud to offer three $1,500 scholarships to Fillmore Central High School or Mabel-Canton seniors in addition to their annual donations to the golf club and groups like the Harmony Area Community Foundation. To date, they have raised over $350,000 for the betterment of youth and the Harmony community!
Harmony Enterprises To Participate Again This Year
Since the tournament’s inception, Harmony Enterprises has been proud to participate in the annual tournament with employees playing golf as well as coming to the dinner and auction events later in the evening. For the past several years, we have been generously sponsored by our long time vendor partner, Van Meter. This year, three Harmony Employees and our Van Meter representative will play as a four person best shot team. This is the first year the classic has moved to a best shot format, making the game more accessible for all level of golfers.
