Harless Wade Invitational Golf Classic
The Harless Wade Invitational Golf Classic is is an annual fundraiser (late Sept./early Oct.), in it's 5th year, that benefits the athletic department at Texas A & M University - Commerce, formerly East Texas State University. Mr. Wade, a legendary retired golf columnist for the Dallas Morning News, founded the event and helps run it every year. Not a single penny has anyone received for working the Classic. Every cent goes for scholarship help for the students. As a graduate of the school, it is his way of giving back. Proceeds have now surpassed $70,000 for the foundation. Proceeds are raised by corporate sponsorship, a silent auction, tournament entry fees, and merchandise. Among those who have paid to play include Mickey Mantle, former Dallas Cowboys Assistant Coach Jim Myers, Nationally recognized golf instructor Debbie Spain of Palm Springs, CA, Senior PGA Tour Winner Rives McBee, former British Airways PR Chief John Stiffler of Pebble Beach, CA, and 2 time Texas Amateur Champion Chip Stewart.
