The countdown is on for the 2025 Davis Memorial Foundation Golf and Clays Tournaments, and your support is needed now more than ever. These two signature events raise essential funds for the Davis Memorial Foundation’s mission — awarding scholarships to the next generation of roofing professionals and their families and providing grants for SkillsUSA competitors.
As a Trustee, I am reaching out to the industry to ask for continued support of this important foundation. With your generosity, Davis has already awarded over 180 scholarships and lead the way to offering grants for the first time in 2025 for SkillsUSA competitors. To raise the important funds, we look to our industry to help with donations and engagement with golf, clays and auctions. These events are not only fun and memorable, they are critical to continuing this important work.
You can make an immediate impact:
Bob Porter Golf Tournament Sunday, September 28, 2025 – 7:30 a.m.

Sporting Clays Tournament Sunday, September 28, 2025 – 9:00 a.m.

About the Davis Memorial Foundation
The Davis Memorial Foundation is proud to establish this scholarship fund in memory of Larry and Mary Davis. Larry was an integral part of the roofing industry for many years serving on several roofing industry association boards which included the RCA of California and Western States Roofing Contractors Association. Larry and his wife Mary perished in a 1995 airplane accident near their home in Modesto (California) while returning from a WSRCA Committee meeting. This fund was established to honor their support for industry education. To learn more, visit: wsrca.com/mpage/home.
