19th Annual Golf Appreciation Day

July 30, 2021

We will be hosting a Golf Appreciation Day on July 30, 2021 at Plum Creek Golf Club. This event will be free for everyone to enjoy. We will have tent setup at the event to ask for donations to help cover the cost of our scholarships. We will be having tee times instead of a shotgun start and they will begin at 6:33am. This event will be to help support scholarships to Douglas County High School Seniors.

The Debbie Jackson Memorial Scholarship was originally created in 1986 by Bunny and Wayne Jackson in memory of their daughter Debbie who died after a long and courageous battle with cancer in 1985 at the age of 24. Debbie was diagnosed with cancer when she was a senior at Columbine High School in Littleton.

 


In 2005, the Debbie Jackson Memorial Scholarship Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization was created to support the original scholarship that was given out at Columbine United Church and to add 2 additional scholarships for Douglas County students.

 


In 2007, the Board of Directors voted to remove the original scholarship from Columbine United Church and increase the amount on the Douglas County Scholarships to $2,500. Later in 2007, the Board voted again this time to increase the amount of the scholarships to $3,000 and add a third scholarship. These scholarships help students with some of the costs associated with attending college.

 


In November 2016, the foundation expanded to include the Pridemore family who have been an active supporter of the Debbie Jackson & Darrell Pridemore Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournament for years. Darrell Pridemore battled cancer for seven years, passing away in July 2016. The Pridemore's own and operate the Pride Auto Care shops in the south metro area and have been a committed and intergral part of the Parker community fo many years. Darrell's daughter Mallory, was one of the 2016 scholarship recipients.
