Fallon, NV – For more than 20 years, Churchill County has hosted the Jim Regan Memorial Golf Tournament to raise funds for academic scholarships for dependents of county staff. Regan was a county commissioner who was heavily involved in the community and died in office in April 2000.
The 2024 tournament saw 48 golfers come out on September 21 for a day of golfing, raffles, food and fun at the Fallon Golf Course. After two rounds through the nine-hole course, the tournament results are:
1st Place – City of Fallon’s Team 2 of Andy Dooley, Tristan Rodarte, Colin Shishido and Hayden Strasdin
2nd Place – Fallon Golf Course Team of Jamie Davis, Jim Privett, Andrew Palmer and Pakela Malama-Gomes
3rd Place – Churchill County Team of Motulalo Otuafi, Travor deBraga, Brooke Hill and Riley Horn
Longest Drive and Closest to the Pin – Trevor deBraga and Jamie Davis
The Jim Regan Memorial Tournament was conceived by former county Comptroller Alan Kalt and is today organized by Pam Moore in the Clerk-Treasurer’s Office.
