The Ken Bowie Legacy Golf Classic
Ken Bowie was an amazing entrepreneur, a generous philanthropist and athlete extraordinaire who raised an entire family of world champions.
Ken Bowie was born on a modest farm in Vulcan, AB, on August 8, 1925. He was 99 years young, as everyone would attest. In his lifetime, Ken Bowie's light shone ever so brightly on anyone who was lucky enough to know him. He was literally the "Last Man Standing" from World War 2. After proudly serving his country, he was blessed with great success in oil which changed the trajectory of his life.
He went on to build homes with Keith Construction. He also spent many years teaching children to ski at Happy Valley. For the last 55 years, Ken was a proud part owner of Willow Park Golf and Country Club. He and his partners raised over twelve million dollars for charities throughout Calgary from the well-known Willow Park Charity Classic.
