(Other methods for providing your donation are available at the bottom of this page.)
Tom Weiskopf is a legend. Over the past 20 years, Tom and Laurie have become family and valued friends to so many in Big Sky. Tom has made such a positive impact on the game of golf and the entire Spanish Peaks Community.
SPCF is honored to announce the Tom Weiskopf Scholarship Fund in his name.
This scholarship fund, announced shortly before his death, supports local residents (Age 18+) who work in Big Sky and who are looking to improve their lives through continuing their education with degrees or certifications.
