Summer’s highly anticipated 19th Hole Concert Series at the Pagosa Springs Golf Club features a different local music talent each Thursday evening in June. The cover charge for each concert is $10, and all proceeds are pooled and distributed evenly to the four selected nonprofits by the Community Foundation serving Southwest Colorado. Last year’s concerts raised $2,500 for each participating organization. We are thankful for our amazing corporate sponsors that cover all event expenses and make this impactful grant possible: Pagosa Springs Golf Club, Bank of Colorado, Inter-Mountain Propane, the Pagosa Springs Sun, and Jan C. Pitcher Real Estate. This year’s recipients are Archuleta Seniors Inc. (ASI), Build Pagosa, Project Sanctuary and the San Juan Headwaters Forest Health Partnership.
The 19th Hole Concerts are community fundraisers that feature local musicians and local nonprofits each Thursday evening in June, from 5:30 to 7:30pm at the Pagosa Springs Golf Club.
“The Archuleta Committee is proud to have been active in supporting Archuleta County’s nonprofits for 10 years now,” said Susan Buchner, current chair of the Archuleta Committee. “We raised a total of $75,000 for local nonprofits in the first nine seasons, which we could not have done without the support of our faithful concert attendees and corporate sponsors.”
As a community facilitator, the Community Foundation works to increase resilience and success for nonprofits, while maximizing effective grantmaking for philanthropists to make Southwest Colorado a better place to live.
