Mike Foster Golf Scramble raises funds to support HCC students

The 32nd Hopkinsville Community College Foundation Mike Foster Golf Scramble was a success, helping raise money to support students.

According to a news release, the golf scramble boasted of 31 teams and spaces for the teams was sold in the first week of September, an ongoing trend for the event that’s designed to raise money to support students’ various needs.  That could be anything from textbook scholarships, classroom needs, emergency funds and stocking the Pathfinder Pantry. The pantry is a relatively new resource for students, providing food, personal hygiene and infant items to those in need.

Along with the teams, there were also over 80 sponsorships for the event.

HCC President and CEO Dr. Alissa Young thanked the organizers of the event, saying, “Each year, it is humbling to see dozens of golfers come out to play golf for such a great cause, and to know that many have also been our students and sent children and grandchildren to HCC. We are your community college, and we thank you for being here for our students.”
