Red Dragon Open

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our sponsors, golfers, and supporters, the 2026 Red Dragon Open Charity Golf Tournament raised more than $48,000 to support the SUNY Oneonta Red Dragon Internship Support Fund.

This year’s tournament brought the total raised by the Red Dragon Open since 2001 to more than $830,000 in scholarships and support funds benefiting SUNY Oneonta students. Every year, this event helps create opportunities for students to gain valuable experiences, build professional connections, and take meaningful steps toward their futures.

We’re grateful to everyone who helped make the 2026 Red Dragon Open such a success, from our sponsors and golfers to the volunteers, students, faculty, staff, and friends who made the day possible.
