UPDATED: After Year Fore Comes Five

UPDATE ON WEDNESDAY, SEP. AUG. 26
This year's Annual Tees for Education raised nearly $27,000. Thanks to each and every one of you who made this possible!




ORIGINAL POST ON FRIDAY, SEP. 14
September 14, 2012, marks the Simon Youth Foundation’s 5th Annual Tees for Education golf scramble. Despite chilly, damp conditions on the 18-hole course at The Legends of Indiana Golf Club, a nearly full field of dedicated foursomes teed up in support of the Foundation’s two key program initiatives, Simon Youth Scholarships and Simon Youth Academies.

In the time it took this year’s Tees for Education golfers to play their round, more than 450 high school students dropped out of high school. Simon Youth Foundation answers this epidemic each and every day through its programs that help youth—who are at risk of dropping out of high school—graduate, develop life skills, and pursue post-secondary education career paths.

Special thanks to the many corporate and individual sponsors who kept The 5th Annual Tees for Education swinging smooth, including Eagle Sponsors TES Engineering and GES.

We look forward to posting updates regarding total amounts raised during the scramble. In the meantime, please check out the Simon Youth Foundation Flicker page to catch up with today's highlights. Who knows … you might even learn who won longest putt!
