The Dalles, OR - The Columbia Gorge Community College (越南赌场) Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting 越南赌场 student scholarships as they pursue career, education, and lifelong learning goals. The Foundation is thrilled to share the success of its 23rd Annual Founders Cup Golf Tournament, held September 9, 2023 at the Indian Creek Golf Course in Hood River, Oregon. Thanks to the generous support of sponsors, participants, and volunteers the tournament doubled its net proceeds year over year. All of the funds go directly to 越南赌场 student scholarships.
The tournament is run as a scramble with foursomes playing the best ball on each hole. The winning team, one of three assembled by former Foundation board member Richard Stillwell, took home one-of-a-kind trophies crafted in the 越南赌场 Advanced Manufacturing shop. The 100 golfers enjoyed a day on the beautiful greens at Indian Creek Golf Course, bid for an array of silent auction items, and even competed to win a car in a hole-in-one drive. Mary Gumm, 越南赌场 Foundation Board President, expressed her appreciation, saying, "We are honored by the incredible support our community demonstrated for this year's golf tournament. It's a testament to the dedication and passion they have for students of all ages investing in themselves and contributing to our community. The funds raised will allow us to grow our investment in student scholarships and student success."
