The Second Annual Tylor Johnson Memorial Golf Tournament is set to tee off on Monday, June 2, 2025, at the scenic Grand Forks Country Club, in Grand Forks, ND, and all are invited to be part of a special day and an opportunity to support a meaningful cause. Register today or support the tournament with a donation here if you can’t make it in person.

Tylor Johnson lived a life fueled by passion and purpose. As a third-generation aerial applicator, he soared above the landscapes he loved, dedicated to both the craft of flying and the vital role of supporting agriculture.

Tragically, Tylor’s life was cut short in a devastating accident when his plane struck a guy wire during a routine flight. It was a harsh reminder of the dangers faced by aerial applicators every day. In the wake of this tragedy, the Tylor Johnson Legacy Foundation was established to honor Tylor’s memory which advocates for increased safety measures that protect other pilots and continuing his legacy of care and commitment to the industry.

The Annual Tylor Johnson Memorial Golf Tournament honors his legacy by bringing people together for a day that mirrors his love for both the game of golf and the people in his life.

A Legacy of Giving:

Last year, the tournament raised $25,000 to fund the Flying in the Wire and Obstruction Environment Course at the 2024 NAAA Ag Aviation Expo. This essential training, offered free of charge to aerial applicators, is helping create safer skies across the nation. Participating this year directly contributes to continued efforts that save lives and improve safety within the ag aviation industry.

Together, we can create safer skies and keep Tylor’s spirit alive through golf, fun, and giving back.
