Summerfield Scholarship

Summerfield Scholarship

Sean "Lil Sean" Summerfield practically grew up at Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson®. He began working with us at the age of 15 when his father Mike, also a member of the Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson® family, volunteered him for an open wash bay position. By 16, Little Sean was riding his Sportster every day to school and then working afternoons and weekends at the dealership. It was obvious from the beginning that Harley-Davidson® was in his blood. He absorbed everything from those around him, building and modifying his own motorcycle and working on all sorts of special projects for the dealership. Little Sean was the inspiration for Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson®'s High School Bike Build Off and was a key member in the development and promotion of the Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson® Scrambler projects. For all that knew him, his "Summerfield Smile" was contagious; his sense for adventure filled others with life. He was a real life James Dean and his memory will live forever in all of us.
