JOIN US AT THE INAUGURAL 'RECKLING INVITATIONAL'

We are excited to announce the inaugural Reckling Invitational golf tournament on Monday, August 19th, 2024 at the Club at Strawberry Creek in Kenosha, Wisconsin!
We hope to draw our friends, colleagues and community together in an effort to raise funds for the Mark R. Reckling Scholarship. The event will be hosted from 10:00 AM - 7:30 PM CDT with a shot-gun, best ball start at 12:00 PM CDT.
All proceeds from this event will go directly towards the Mark R. Reckling Scholarship and will be awarded to students who have participated in the Waukegan to College Program. The Waukegan to College Program supports and prepares first generation students to pursue post-secondary education.
The recipients of the Mark R. Reckling Scholarship will embody qualities that Mark possessed, such as being hard working, driven, kind and humble. This scholarship will carry on both Barb and Mark Reckling's legacy and invest in the next generation of leaders from their hometown, Waukegan.
In Mark and Barb's honor the Grand Foundation will award $10, 750 over four years for a total of $43,000 to each scholarship recipient in honor of Mark's tenure of 43 years to his beloved company, Grand Appliance.
