TOURNAMENT RESULTS

The 8th Annual Scholarship Golf Tournament, sponsored by the SPC Men’s Fellowship Group, was held at Mill Quarter Golf Club April 25th.  The event raised a total of $9,000. This enables Union to offer a trial scholarship to a first year student at Union Theological Seminary. 

 

The weather was fantastic, as well as the camaraderie and golf.  Special thanks go to the dental practice of Drs. Davis and Nyczepir, LTD who donated the catering services (Catering by Jill) for the event. And thanks to everyone who helped make this a great event.
