Dubois County golf outing raises scholarship funds for local ISU students
Dubois County students headed to Indiana State University can win one of two $1,000 alumni scholarships, paid out in $500 installments for fall and spring.
Dubois County students headed to Indiana State University could receive one of two $1,000 scholarships from the Dubois County Alumni Club of Indiana State University, with the money paid in $500 allotments for the fall and spring semesters.
The awards are designed to help students cover tuition, books or fees, giving local families a direct financial benefit tied to the annual golf outing that supports the scholarship fund. The scholarship winner was announced at the ISU Dubois County Golf Outing, and at least one award ceremony was held during a dinner following the outing at Buffalo Trace Golf Course in Jasper.
The outing has served as more than a social gathering. In one year, the Indiana State University Dubois County Alumni Club hosted its annual Sycamore Golf Outing at Buffalo Trace Golf Course as a four-person team scramble with a shotgun start at 12:30 p.m. EST on Wednesday, June 2, 2021. Another planned outing was set for June 1 and carried a $70 per person entry fee that included golf, a cart, prizes, a Schnitzelbank pork chop dinner after the scramble and a contribution to the Dubois County ISU Scholarship Fund.
That structure matters because it shows exactly how the money flows. Golfers pay to play, part of that payment goes into the scholarship fund, and the fund then turns around and sends $500 in the fall and another $500 in the spring to each of the two selected students. For a Dubois County student enrolled at Indiana State, that means the support is not a one-time prize but a semester-by-semester boost that can be applied where the bill is highest.
Applications and additional information were available through local high schools or by contacting Kent Reyling, giving students in Dubois County a clear path into the program. The scholarship has long been aimed at local students from the county who are attending or planning to attend Indiana State University, linking the annual outing in Jasper to a concrete educational payoff for the region.
