The 20th annual Herkimer Region College and Career Scholarship Foundation Golf Tournament will raise money to provide scholarships to students attending college following a vocational education in high school.
This year’s golf tournament will also help support the Career Award the Scholarship Foundation offers for students who gain employment in a Career and Technical Education field prior to or soon after graduation and incur expenses as a result of that employment.
Students can apply for this award, which allows the reimbursement of up to $750 for trade-specific expenses such as employment clothing, personal protective equipment, tools, supplies, certifications, credentials and/or licenses.
The golf tournament is Monday, Aug. 14, at the Cedar Lake Club in Clayville. Registration is at 9 a.m., and there will be a shotgun start at 10 a.m.
Interested sponsors and teams for this fundraiser, which will benefit students in the Herkimer BOCES region, are asked to contact Herkimer BOCES District Clerk Shawn Maxson at 315-867-2023 or smaxson@herkimer-boces.org.
To date, the Herkimer Region College and Career Scholarship Foundation has provided more than 360 scholarships – totaling over $205,000.
