Springfield Schools Foundation holds fund-raiser golf outing

The Springfield Schools Foundation returned to Stone Oak Country Club July 31 for its 12th golf outing. Event chair and high school golf coach Brad Kerns opened the event with a nod to Scott Walsh for his guidance of the event over the previous 11 tournaments. This year, 20 teams of golfers helped raise nearly $18,000 that will be available to enrich the educational experiences for Springfield Schools’ students.

Golf outing sponsors were Scott Stigall State Farm, Evans, Beebe & Fields, Midwest Security, Renhill, Laibe, EnVision Lawn and Landscape, Mytee, Graf Family, Structured Wealth Management and the Springfield Education Association.

On-course challenges and opportunities included the chance for golfers to improve their chances off the tee by enlisting a member of the University of Toledo golf team in a “Buy Your Drive.” The winning team again this year was Scott Walsh, RJ Rajner, Joe Glass and Matt Gaynier with a score of 14 under par.
