128CM Memorial Student Golf Tournament

We invite you to assemble a team of two golfers for the 128CM Memorial Student Golf Tournament

in Death Valley, California.  There are 2 Flights of play, a School Flight & a Donor Support Flight. 

 

1. School Flight: The team of two must be one student and either one school faculty/staff member or an alumnus. A team entry fee is required (we encourage you to seek a sponsor).  Each school will compete for a substantial prize, 1st Place $5,000, 2nd Place $3,000 & 3rd Place $2,000 that will be directly allocated to your school's benefit.  If a team does not place 1st, 2nd or 3rd, upon completing the round of golf the team will be awarded $1500 in unrestricted funds for their school.   Registration open first of the calendar year, act swiftly, as this opportunity has a limited number of 30 school teams, first come first serve basis.  There is a maximum of 3 teams per school.  Team registration payment will have a deadline or your team will lose their spot in the tournament.

​

2. Donor Support Flight:   Donors of the 128CM Memorial Student Golf Tournament can play alongside the School Flight on the day of the event.  By giving a donation, supporters can play the 18 holes of golf, compete among themselves and enjoy a delightful lunch with the school teams at the awards program.  *There is a lunch only option as well.

In memory of

The 128CM Memorial Foundation was created in honor of those lives that were tragically cut short on March 22nd, 2009 in a plane accident in Butte, Montana. The name of the fund, pronounced “1-2-8-Charlie-Mike”, comes from the tail number of the Pilatus airplane that was piloted by Ellison “Air Bud” Summerfield.
