Kenny Novak Scholarship Day

July 29, 2024 at Club Walden - 12:30 Shotgun Start

Proceeds from this day will support the Northern Ohio PGA Section Foundation. Our main initiative from this event is to raise money to help financially deserving junior golfers pay for their college education. In 2021, 2022, we provided two juniors with a $10,000 scholarship divided over four years.  In 2023, we were able to give $27,000 worth of funding. With funds raised from this year's event, we will fund 2024's scholarship recipients. Thank you for helping make the golf community a better place in Northern Ohio!
