Volunteers Needed For Manzanita Open

Submitted By: manzanitaopen@gmail.com – Click to email about this post

Every year in May, our non-profit organization, The Eugene Schmuck Foundation hosts The Manzanita Open golf tournament to raise money for our local communities. The event started in the 1990’s, but in 1997, local philanthropist Eugene Schmuck helped transition the tournament to ESF. This move assured that the funds raised stay right here, in the North Tillamook County area. Since taking over, we have given away over 1.8 million dollars to many, many wonderful organizations that help others, to our schools, and through scholarships for graduating senior and alumni.

Our 2025 event will be May 16, 17, and 18th with lots of fun golfing, hanging out by the burger tent, games, door prizes, and raffles. Which is where you come in!

We need volunteers to help us put on the event. We are looking for volunteers for the following times and events. If you want to enjoy the great outdoors and support a worthy cause we would love to hear from you. Please email manzanitaopen@gmail.com with the event(s) and time(s) when you can help.
