Stogner Scholarship Golf Tournament
The Stogner Scholarship for Autism will hold its 15th and final golf tournament at Pudding Ridge on Sept. 17.

The tournament has raised over $400,00 and has awarded over 140 scholarships to children in need.
The cost is $75 per person/$300 per team for the captain’s choice. There will be two shotgun starts – 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. Lunch for both shotgun starts will be between noon-2. For more information, send an email to leighstimpson003@gmail.com.
