Since its inception in 1994, the Disaster Services Open has emerged as one of the Ozarks area’s premier golf tournaments. Over the past 18 years, the tournament’s proceeds have exceeded over $1,000,000, an amount that serves as a significant part of the Red Cross’s budget for disaster relief to area residents. Whether this means buying clothes and shoes or providing immediate emergency lodging, the funds raised through the Disaster Services Open help provide assistance to families in the Ozarks who need it most.
