Pagnozzi Charities hosts several events throughout the year to support its mission
and raise awareness for the Pagnozzi Youth Sports Scholarship Fund. In the spring,
the Grand Slam Celebration, which has become an annual event and
continues to grow each year, will be held at the home of Tom and Colleen Pagnozzi.
Sponsors and party goers gather for food, entertainment, Vegas-style casino gambling
and a live auction. Past auction items have included Razorback ticket packages,
autographed memorabilia and trips, which even include a VIP trip to a St. Louis
Cardinals series with Tom Pagnozzi.
In an effort to increase awareness and support in Benton County, our newest fundraiser
is held in June each summer. It is our Get Out and Play Corporate Games
event held at the Benton County Fairgrounds. Corporations field teams and compete
in events such as kickball, volleyball, 2-hand touch football, horseshoes, ladder
golf, egg spoon relay, potato sack race, obstacle course and more! This is a great
team-building activity for your employees while supporting our mission – to get
out and play to help under-served youth get the opportunity to play sports.
As summer draws to an end, the charity begins to prepare for its biggest event,
the Tom Pagnozzi Charity Golf Tournament, Ultimate Tailgate, and Sports Memorabilia
Auction. Our premier event has grown to 3 flights of golf over 2 days
and a banquet-turned-Ultimate Tailgate-themed party which features live entertainment
and draws nearly 800 people. The event includes a sports auction with an extensive
auction list of over 150 sports memorabilia items. Auction items have included autographed
baseballs, basketballs, footballs, jerseys, as well as trips and artwork.
