Thirty-one teams gathered  for  our annual fundraiser and fun-filled day at the Ozarka College Foundation Golf Tournament on September 21, 2023. The four-person scramble took place at Cooper's Hawk Golf Course in Melbourne, Arkansas and all proceeds will benefit the students of Ozarka College. First place in the Championship Flight went to the team of Randy Cross, Scott Pinkston, Chaney Coleman, and Dylan Smith. Ronnie Jeffery won the putting contest, receiving a golf club donated by Jim Cooper and Blane Johnson won the 75/25 Cash Raffle, a benefit  for  the Danny Graham Memorial Scholarship.   Blane donated his portion of the proceeds back to the scholarship fund.
