In a spirited day of competition, 34 teams recently participated in the 2024 J. David Russell Memorial Golf Tournament at Forest Heights Country Club in Statesboro, all to support scholarships and adult education program at Ogeechee Technical College (OTC).
The OTC Foundation extended special appreciation to this year's sponsors including Diamond Sponsors, Morris Bank and Synovus.
“We are so thankful for the continued generosity from our sponsors, supporters, and volunteers, both new and returning,” shared Larry Mays, Vice President for College Advancement. “Due to the overwhelming support, we were able to add a second flight of teams to this year’s competition. Congratulations to our tournament winners and thank you to all the teams who joined us to support student scholarships and our Adult Education Program.”
The over $25,000 raised during the tournament will help cover the cost of GED exams for eligible students, provide Integrated Education and Training (IET) opportunities, and bolster scholarship opportunities for students looking to achieve academic and career goals.
