Community Focus
Benchmark Contracting, Inc. dba Cobblestone Construction is proud of our continuing commitment to the communities we serve, as well as the local, regional and national charities and non-profit organizations we support. As we have grown and prospered over the years, we have, both as a Company as well as through our employees and their efforts, given back to our community, whenever and wherever possible.
The Renea Parker Scholarship Fund Annual Charity Golf Tournament
First and foremost, Benchmark Contracting, Inc. dba Cobblestone Construction has been a proud sponsor of The Renea Parker Scholarship Fund Charity Golf Tournament, an annual Event held in May of each year. For 16 years the proceeds went towards scholarships donated to Converse College in Spartanburg, SC in Ms. Parker’s memory, to help students achieve their academic dreams. We are pleased to say that scholarship has been so successful it is now self-funding and will live on in perpetuity. Ms. Parker was the sister of Mr. Benden Parker, President of Benchmark Contracting, Inc. dba Cobblestone Construction, and Mr. Theodore Parker III, Attorney at Law with Parker Nelson & Associates in Las Vegas.
We are please to now expand the reach with proceeds now available to fund local giving. The 2017 Golf Tournament proceeds, totally over $21,000, went to the Rainbow Dreams Academy in Las Vegas, NV to help build their new science laboratory. We look forward to continuing to contribute to our community and appreciate all who have participated. The tournament is held at the Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort, 10325 Nu-Way Kaiv Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89124 each year in May. We look forward to seeing you there!
