Mission

Bob and Joan introduced their children to golf at a young age. Their children were all members of the Central DeWitt Golf teams throughout their four years of high school, and all three made a trip to the state golf tournament. Their sons experienced the many hours of hard work involved with maintaining a golf course through jobs at Springbrook Country Club. Their children all learned the enjoyment of golf, as well as the dedication, self discipline and commitment to the game. It is with this thought that they have established their scholarships, to provide some assistance with further education. They would like their scholarships to be awarded each year to one male and one female golfer.
