The Wright State University Alumni Association is hosting its annual Legacy Scholarship Golf Outing Monday, August 19. The event will be held at the Heatherwoode Golf Club in Springboro, Ohio. Registration for the event begins at 7:00 a.m., and a continental breakfast sponsored by The Wright State Foundation will be provided. Liberty Mutual will provide a putting contest beginning at 7:30 a.m. Golfers will tee off at 8:30 a.m. in a shotgun start. Lunch, sponsored by SEI Investments, will begin immediately following golf.

The individual golfer registration fee is $100 for Alumni Association members and $120 for all others. The registration fee covers greens fees for 18 holes with a cart, breakfast, lunch and two beverage tickets. Additional games such as closest to the pin, longest drive and a skins game will be available to play as well. An awards ceremony will take place during lunch.

Proceeds for the event will benefit the Wright State University Alumni Association Legacy Scholarship fund. The scholarship program was formally established in 1994 to help offset the rising cost of tuition and make higher education more accessible. The Alumni Association has been awarding scholarships for over four decades; over 500 awards have been given, worth more than $500,000 for tuition assistance to Wright State University.  The Alumni Association was able to award 55 scholarships for the 2012–13 academic year. Many of these scholarships were able to be awarded, largely as a result of generous support from our sponsors.

Sponsorships are still available. For more information please contact the Alumni Relations department at (937) 775-2620.
