Larry Miller, chair of the
Byesville Rotary Scholarship Golf Tournament, reported that during the 29 years
the club has sponsored the golf scholarship tournament over 70 Meadow Brook
graduates have benefited from the club’s scholarship program. To date the
club’s annual Scholarship Golf tournament has raised almost $66,000 for
scholarships.
Miller pointed out that
community support of the golf tournament has been an important part of its
success. This year the tournament will be held Sunday, May 3, at the Wildfire
Golf Course in New Concord. Miller asked club members to help recruit sponsors
and golfers who would like to join Byesville Rotary Club members in investing
in the future of local young people.
For a $100.00 contribution,
a company, organization, or individual can sponsor a hole at the event. Donations
are not limited to cash. Prizes or gifts displaying a company's name are also
appreciated. This event is the club’s only fund raiser for scholarships. All
proceeds are directed to the scholarship fund.
Golfers can support
scholarship funding by forming 3 person teams. The fee is $55.00 per player;
$165.00 per team. Miller pointed out that this year the club is offering an
“Early Bird Special.” Golfers who register by Saturday, April 24 will get a
$5.00 discount per golfer. First Place prize is $300.00 and Second Place is
$200.00. Registration begins at 7:30 am with a shotgun start at 8:00 am. Hot
dogs and beverages will be available at the turn. Dinner will be catered by
TJ's Market.
