2018 MARE Scholarship Golf Tournament
The 2018 MARE Scholarship Golf Tournament was held on Tuesday, July 31st at the beautiful Osage National Golf Courses in Lake Ozark, Missouri. This year we had twenty-four (24) teams participating in the event. The weather was amazing (after the morning monsoon) and the entire crew at Osage National was awesome. Proceeds from the event are dedicated to providing scholarship funds for students who plan to become teachers and return to rural Missouri schools to teach. This past year, through the generous support of our corporate sponsors, hole sponsors, players and other patrons MARE was able to award $25,500.00 in scholarships. Our plan is to grow the financial support for the tournament so that we can offer even more scholarships next year. Corporate sponsors for this year include the following:
