[March 02, 2022]
Tournament officials announced that COUNTRY Financial will serve as
the Official Sponsor for the volunteer program for the 2022 Memorial
Health Championship Golf Tournament presented by LRS and
registration is now open.
The Memorial Health Championship presented by LRS, a PGA
TOUR-sanctioned event on the Korn Ferry Tour, is conducted annually
at Panther Creek Country Club in Springfield, Illinois. This
four-day, 72-hole competition features 156 players from around the
world vying for a total purse of $750,000.
The tournament is looking to recruit more than 400 volunteers to
fill over 15 different committees at this year’s event scheduled for
July 11 – 17 at Panther Creek Country Club. As the sponsor of the
volunteer program, COUNTRY will support this dedicated team of
people who perform a variety of critical needs throughout the
tournament. Whether one is a golf novice, an avid fan, volunteered
in the past, or a new volunteer, there is something for everyone.
“We are proud to once again support the volunteers that play such a
pivotal role in the success of the tournament,” says JR Earley,
Agency Manager of COUNTRY Financial. “Supporting the community and
events like the Memorial Health Championship are at the core of what
COUNTRY stands for, so we are excited to renew our support and
welcome professional golf back to Central Illinois.”

There are numerous perks offered for volunteers including branded apparel, meals
while working, weekly credentials for volunteers, additional tickets for family
and friends and the opportunity to play in the volunteer golf outing at Panther
Creek in August. There are also a limited number of junior volunteer
opportunities available for individuals ages 14-17 during tournament week and
this is a terrific way to earn community service hours.

“We are excited to launch registration for the COUNTRY Financial volunteer

aspect of tournament operations and are vital to our goal of raising charitable
dollars for the five foundations of Memorial Health.”
