JUSTIN & BEA HARPER MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT

The Boys & Girls Club of Las Cruces has been honored to host an annual golf tournament for many years. In October 2014, our Club and community lost a dear friend, Justin Harper, the longtime CEO of Citizens Bank of Las Cruces. Justin was deeply involved in our community, serving on several boards, including as a valued board member of our Club. Even after his time on our board, he never stopped being a strong supporter and advocate for our kids.

To celebrate Justin’s commitment to our community, our Club, and especially to young people, we dedicated our annual golf tournament to his legacy.

Even after Justin’s passing, his beloved wife Bea and their children continued to stand by our Club with unwavering support. When Bea passed away in 2024, it became important to us to not only carry on Justin’s legacy, but to also honor Bea for her devotion to our mission and her love for the children we serve.

Together, Justin and Bea’s generosity, leadership, and compassion will always be a part of the Boys & Girls Club of Las Cruces. Their legacy lives on in the great futures being built here every day.
