Proceeds from the outing benefit the South Walton Center, a collaboration between Seacoast Collegiate High School and Northwest Florida State College. The center includes a new high school building and a Northwest Florida State College satellite campus offering dual enrollment, college degree programs, and workforce development opportunities. A future community building is planned to provide additional training, continuing education, and industry partnerships.
“I’ve always believed sports have the power to bring people together for something bigger,” Glavine said. “This event does exactly that. The support raised here today directly helps young people in our community gain the skills, education, and confidence they need to build successful futures right here at home.”
