Kings Farm Bureau hosts 8th Harvest Classic Golf Tourney

Since 2004, Farm Day has taken place each March at the Kings Fairgrounds, growing larger and more successful with each passing year. During a typical year, KCFB welcomes approximately 2,400 area third graders, to the fairgrounds for an interactive field trip that teaches valuable lessons about the many facets of Kings County ag. The number of students who attend continues to increase, as does the number of industry professionals who want to support Farm Day with their involvement.

“Kings County Farm Bureau remains committed to growing Farm Day to help educate Kings County students about the crucial role agriculture plays in their daily lives,” said KCFB Executive Director Dusty Ference. “With the community’s support, we can increase our efforts to ensure the future of agriculture is protected by the next generation of consumers.”

To make this year’s Harvest Classic a success, KCFB is looking to the community to support the event with sponsorships and by signing up to play in the tournament. Check-in for the Oct. 17 tournament begins at 9 a.m., with a shotgun start at 10 a.m.

J.C. Lansdowne is this year’s Harvest Classic Presenting Sponsor, and Sandra Hedstrom of Stifel Investment Services is sponsoring the $10,000 hole-in-one cash prize. Additional sponsorship opportunities are available, ranging from $250 to $2,000. The cost to golf is $150 for individuals and $600 for a team. Registration is due by Sept. 30.
