Foundation hosts annual Golf Classic

The Northeast Texas Community College Foundation held its annual Golf Classic on November 18 at Daingerfield Country Club in Daingerfield. The tournament raised more than $14,000 to support the NTCC Work Scholarship Program. 

The tournament ended in a tie with the Guaranty Bank and Trust and Texas Heritage National Bank teams both shooting 15 under. After a scorecard tie-breaker, the Guaranty Bank and Trust team was declared the official winner.  

Businesses who participated or helped sponsor the event included American National Bank, Bowie Cass Electric Cooperative, Cypress Bank, Elliott Auto Group, Guaranty Bank and Trust, Daingerfield Country Club, Kathy Diduch with Wealth Planning Advisors, Inc., Region VIII Education Service Center and Texas Heritage National Bank.

“We really appreciate everyone who came out to support the Work Scholarship Program at the Golf Classic. It’s a fun way to make a real difference in the lives of students right here in our community,” Dr. Jonathan McCullough, NTCC Executive Vice President for Advancement, said.
