DETAILS

Scott Strong believed that the business community had the opportunity to share their resources and provide Lake County students with the edge in public education. In 2004, his vision resulted in the founding of the Education Foundation Golf Tournament. The tournament has since been renamed in his memory and has raised over a million dollars. These funds help maintain essential educational programs, award grants for innovative teaching practices, and provide scholarships to local students. Scott A. Strong's legacy and belief in public education has touched the lives of over 80,000 students. Proceeds from this tournament will continue to enhance education in Lake County for years to come. In the past 13 years 150 students have been awarded $174,750 in Scott Strong Memorial Scholarships. The 2023 scholarship awards included $22,000 to 13 students. The fund is administered by the Educational Foundation of Lake County and is managed by a volunteer selection committee. To date, the fund has collected more than $300,000 from the annual golf tournament proceeds and donations. Reserve your spot today!
