Police Officer Tom Smith Jr Memorial Golf Tournament

BackStoppers and Missouri Special Olympics would like to invite you to participate in the upcoming 2022 charitable event!

Following in his father’s footsteps, the young and dedicated Tom Smith Jr. honorably served as a St. Louis County Police Officer and was a proud EMSRA member. Tom Jr made the ultimate sacrifice when he was killed in the line of duty. Proceeds generated by the Memorial Golf Tournament will go to Backstoppers and a charity to be determined.

The Backstoppers Inc., founded in 1959, provides support and financial assistance to the spouses and children of all city and county police officers, firefighters, public-funded paramedics, EMT’s and volunteer fire protection units who have lost their lives in the line of duty. These include counties served Missouri Highway Patrol Troop C in Missouri, Illinois State Police District 11 in Illinois, and County of Cape Girardeau in Missouri.
