OPA Open Golf Tournament

Join us for the 2026 OPA Open Charity Golf Tournament, a day of golf, community, and impact benefiting two organizations working to strengthen opportunity and connection in Greenville.

The tournament will be held Sunday, September 13, 2026 at Southern Oaks Golf Course and will feature a shotgun start format, along with contests, prizes, and opportunities to support important local initiatives.

Golfers can enjoy a fun and competitive day on the course with activities including closest to the hole, longest drive, a putting contest, a 50/50 raffle, and other games and prizes throughout the tournament.

A Unique Community Partnership

The OPA Open reflects the power of collaboration. This event brings together AHEPA Chapter 242 and the Barbara Stone Foundation, two organizations united by a shared commitment to strengthening our community.

Through this partnership, the tournament supports initiatives that expand opportunity, invest in local youth and adults with disabilities, and empower individuals across Greenville.

Through leadership, collaboration, and innovation, the Barbara Stone Foundation continues to turn vision into meaningful opportunity across Greenville County.
