Smithville Golf Course will be the site of the 5th annual Earl Judkins Golf Classic on Saturday, July 30.

Funds from this year’s event will be earmarked for four-year-old Karly Campbell, who was diagnosed with leukemia earlier this year. Karly is the daughter of Alex and Marly Campbell of Smithville.

The event, named for the late Earl Judkins, an avid golfer and a cancer patient, will be hosted by the Cantrell Cancer Benefit Foundation.

The five-year old event has held benefits for Amy Miller, Chrissy Means, Gracie Dezarn, and Edith Johnson McReynolds since its inception five years ago. 

The Classic begins with a shotgun start at 8 a.m. Entry fee for an individual golfer is $60, or $240 for a team of four. The price includes 18 holes with cart and meal. Mulligans can be bought prior to the shotgun start. Lunch will be provided, and door prizes and a raffle will be available.

The entry deadline is Friday, July 15. The format is a 4-person A,B,C,D, Scramble/Own Team-Best Ball. For more information contact Tyler Cantrell at tcantrell@cosma.com.
