The University of Texas at Tyler is seeking teams and sponsors to participate in the annual scholarship fundraiser supporting students of the Longview University Center.
The 鈥淧utting for the Patriots鈥� golf tournament will be Monday, Nov. 6, at Pinecrest Country Club, located at 214 Club Drive in Longview. The shotgun-start tournament is sponsored by the 黑料专区 Tyler Longview University Center and the Texas Wounded Warrior Foundation.
Proceeds from the golf tournament provide scholarships to LUC students who are active-duty military, veterans or reservists. Scholarships are also provided to immediate family members of these military students. The event was started in 2019, in partnership with the Texas Wounded Warrior Foundation.
鈥淎s we approach Veterans Day, the Longview University Center wants to show its appreciation for those who have served this great country. One way we do that is by giving our military students and/or their dependent families the opportunity to benefit from the quality education we provide,鈥� said Dr. Rodney Ellis, LUC director.
For sponsorships or to register a team of four, visit uttyler.edu/advancement/luc-golf-tournament. Check-in begins at 10 a.m.
The tournament goal is to raise $50,000 to establish an endowment.
For additional information or giving opportunities, visit and select the Texas Wounded Warrior Scholarship Fund option.
