Scramble for Students

It was a wet one, but those who endured the torrential rain, hail, thunder and lightening had a great time golfing at Persimmon County Club on September 18. For the first time in our 22 year history, the tournament sold out with 144 golfers and a record number of sponsors. Over $61,000 was raised to support the work of the education foundation and the students in our district.
