Teambackers
Present Check for Scholarship Fund
The
University of Minnesota, Crookston (UMC)
Teambackers presented a check for $1,016 to UMC’s Development Director
Del Roelofs for the Mark Olsonawski Fund. Proceeds from the Mark
Olsonawski Golf Scramble held this summer in Hallock went to the fund.
The
scholarship now totals over $4,000. When a goal of $10,000 is reached the
scholarship will be awarded annually to a football player from
northwestern Minnesota with preference to a Kittson Central student.
As the fund grows, additional scholarships will be awarded.
Anyone
interested in contributing to the Mark Olsonawski Fund should contact UMC's
Development Office at 218-281-8438.
