The evening of Wednesday, May 14th, at Haggin Oaks was another glorious night. The winds were down; a few clouds were in the sky, and the excitement was high for the 13th Annual Morton Golf Foundation “Putting Party” fundraiser.
There were 18 5-person TEAMS created to play in a miniature golf course setting. There were nearly 100 putters on the MacKenzie Putting Green, laughing and enjoying the beautiful evening.
When the putting was complete everyone moved on to the Pavilion tent to enjoy a buffet dinner, a small silent auction, and awards.
The 2025 Morton Golf Foundation College Scholarship WINNERS and their parents were invited to join in the dinner and show the 100 donors that our future leaders were in the room.
Frank LaRosa was the emcee of the event and as he announced each student’s name, he told us where they graduated from and which college they had chosen. Frank read a short quote that each student had written in their scholarship application, telling us a little bit about their personality. When the 20 winners stood before us, we were all so proud, and everyone stood up to clap, knowing our future was in good hands.
Hope to see you next year when there will be new scholarship winners and more leaders on the way.
