Fore! Scholarships

The 2nd annual Scholarship Golf Tournament, sponsored by the UMKC Dental Alumni Association teed-off Friday, August 3, at Ironhorse Golf Club at 9 a.m. Golfers enjoyed a great day of golf, fun and camaraderie while raising money for dental student scholarships. As a result of the money raised from last year’s innaugural tournament, three $1,000 scholarships were presented to students for the 2001-02 academic year. Next year the UMKC Dental Alumni Association Scholarship Golf Tournament will be able to double that number. 

The Steering Committee, chaired by Sam Hayes (D.D.S. ’66), included Hugh Bruner (D.D.S. ’61), Dean Dyer (D.D.S. ’65), A. C. Edwards (D.D.S. ’62), Eric Johnson (D.D.S. ’66), Michael McCunniff (D.D.S. ’83), Paul Perme (D.D.S. ’56), and Joe Spalitto (D.D.S. ’72). Even though no one drove away with the new Chrysler being awarded for a hole-in-one, several good scores were turned in.
