Here is how and when you are legally able to use your merchandise award. We (the board of directors, our banker, accountant, and IRS nonprofit agents) have devised the necessary steps for you to redeem your merchandise award.

We have opened a separate account with all the merchandise award winnings at Key Bank. Your winnings are earmarked for you to use for merchandise awards only. The amount can grow as you win more Northwest Jr Golf Tour events.

Here is how you redeem your merchandise award earnings...

Points of interest to your parents and/or the family accountant:
1) The IRS does not consider this income.
2) Any donations to Northwest Jr Golf Tour are tax deductible. If you or your business would like to help, please e-mail us.
3) Merchandise awards not applied for or inquired about within 4 years of the player's high school graduation will be written off the NWJrGT books and donated to the merchandise award account for future NWJrGT events.

If you have further questions, please contact Jeff Mehlert by telephone at 360.895.0130 or by e-mail at jeff@jrgt.com. Thank you and we hope to see you at future events.
