Raising dollars for education
South Florida Fair golf tournament raises funds for education.
July 12th, 2024
The South Florida Fair John Picano, Jr. Memorial Golf Tournament, which was held at the Banyan Golf Club on June 7, raised more than $33,000 for educational scholarships. Since 1981, the South Florida Fair has raised nearly $900,000 in college scholarships for local youth.
The day began with a continental breakfast before players began golfing. They competed for prizes and awards, which were given out at a luncheon afterwards.
The golf tournament is named in honor of the late John Picano, Jr., who served as the South Florida Fair’s public relations director for almost two decades. A respected community leader, he was an avid golfer and instrumental in the fair’s golf tournament growth and success. His memory lives on through this tournament, which provides scholarships to area students who might not otherwise be able to attend college.
The South Florida Fair is produced by the South Florida Fair & Palm Beach County Expositions, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, and has a longstanding tradition of raising funds for educational and charitable purposes. Located at 9067 Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach, the 2025 South Florida Fair will kick off with its Ride-A-Thon at 5 p.m. on January 16 and the full fair will be held January 17–February 2. The Fair staff also presents additional events throughout the year, including Breakfast with the Easter Bunny, Sweet Corn Fiesta, Gigantic Garage Sale, Fright Nights, Spookyville, Cocktails and Costumes and History on the Rocks.
