REEF
Fourteen years of REEF
The fourteenth annual R.E.E.F. Tournament will take place on Saturday, May 9, 2026.
Organized by the Ransom Everglades Alumni Association, the REEF Tournament engages the entire RE community to support projects that fulfill the school’s mission to give back. Anglers of all ages are invited to tackle the waters of Biscayne Bay in this friendly fishing competition. Proceeds from REEF continue to benefit the Ransom Everglades Waterfront, which supports RE and community-wide athletic opportunities and is used year-round for classes, competitions and community service. A portion of the REEF proceeds will benefit our community partners The Barnyard and Breakthrough Miami.
