Once again, BMO Harris Bank and Canadian golfers at Red Mountain Ranch Golf and Country Club are teaming up with the Red Mountain Ranch Elementary School (RMRES) to raise funds for much needed equipment at this local school.
A successful golf tournament, held last February, raised more than $6,000 for the school. Funds were raised through the support of BMO Harris Bank as the major sponsor of the event, various levels of local business sponsorship, as well as the generous support of the tournament participants at a silent auction.
RMRES is celebrating 20 years of learning in this community. To help mark this anniversary, organizers plan to make the 2014 BMO Harris Bank Canadian Open more successful than ever. To do this, they need the support of the community in any number of ways. The event is dependent upon volunteers before and during the event, donors of silent auction items, partners in the sponsorship of holes and, finally, participants in the golf tournament.
The silent auction will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 26, from 7 to 9 p.m., and the 2014 BMO Harris Bank Canadian Open will be held on Thursday, Feb. 27. Both events are at the Red Mountain Ranch Golf and Country Club.
