Cox Classic In 1996, the Omaha Jaycees were the driving force bringing the nationwide portion of golf’s PGA Tour to Omaha. The Cox Classic continued to grow, and 12 years later, the Jaycees remain a mayor source of tournament assistance. The Jaycees volunteer for roughly 200 shifts during the four-day tournament. A major volunteer duty this year was once again to host the viewing boxes throughout the course. The Omaha Jaycees are excited about this event that came to life through the hard work and dedication of previous members!
