The Missouri Sports Hall of Fame will support the Christian County Deputies Fund through its Red, White & Birdies Charity Golf Tournament scheduled for July 17 at Rivercut Golf Course in Springfield. The event aims to honor local law enforcement and benefit the Christian County Deputies Family Fund, which assists families of deputies who have died in the line of duty.
This initiative is part of the Hall of Fame’s ongoing efforts to use sports and community events to support causes in southwest Missouri. The tournament will also feature Price Cutter Cares presented by Hiland Dairy, a program focused on helping local organizations throughout the Ozarks.
“Sports have a powerful way of bringing communities together,” said Rob Marsh, President & CEO of the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame. “Through Red, White & Birdies, we want to honor the bravery and sacrifice of our local deputies while helping provide meaningful support to their families. This event is about community, gratitude, and standing behind those who serve and protect us. It’s also an opportunity to show how organizations like Price Cutter Cares presented by Hiland Dairy can bring people together to support causes that truly matter.”
The day-long tournament will include golf activities, player gift packages, meals, contests on the course, and moments recognizing law enforcement service. Community leaders and supporters from across the region are expected to attend.
Besides fundraising goals, organizers hope to highlight law enforcement dedication and reassure families of fallen deputies that they have continued community backing.
Team registrations and sponsorships are available. For more information or to participate in the event, contact the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame at 417-889-3100 or rob@mosportshalloffame.com.
