[February 03, 2026]
SPRINGFIELD, IL – Volunteer
registration is now open for the Memorial Health Championship
presented by LRS, a PGA TOUR-sanctioned golf tournament held at
Panther Creek Country Club. Tournament officials announced that
COUNTRY Financial® will once again serve as the Official Sponsor of
the volunteer program.
The tournament is seeking to recruit more than 500 volunteers to
fill over 20 different committees for this year’s event, scheduled
for June 22 - 28. As the presenting sponsor of the volunteer
program, COUNTRY Financial will support the dedicated individuals
who help fulfill a wide range of critical roles throughout
tournament week. Whether someone is a golf novice, avid fan,
returning volunteer, or first-time volunteer, there are
opportunities available for everyone.
“At COUNTRY Financial, supporting our communities is one of the ways
we help people experience more,” said JR Earley, District Leader of
COUNTRY Financial. “We are proud to once again support the
volunteers who play such a pivotal role in the success of this
tournament. Supporting events like the Memorial Health Championship
aligns with who we are, and we’re excited to continue our support of
professional golf in Central Illinois.”
Volunteers receive numerous benefits, including branded apparel,
access to the COUNTRY Financial Volunteer headquarters, including
meals while working, weeklong credentials, behind-the-ropes
experiences, and the opportunity to play the Championship’s host
course during the volunteer golf outing. A limited number of junior
volunteer opportunities are also available during tournament week,
offering a great way to earn service hours. Volunteers who register
early will be eligible for several early registration incentives
that launch in March.
