The “Teddy L. Gruver” Founder’s Trophy is currently on display in the main office at Columbia City High School, 600 North Whitley Street, Columbia City, IN. Winners of this annual event will have their names added to the trophy and a photo of the winning team will be displayed in the CCHS main office.
The eighth annual golf outing will be held on September 27, 2014. The event is more about fun, sportsmanship, and fundraising to benefit current CCHS students and the community than about superior golf skills or winning the golf tournament. It is open to all who love the game, not just CCHS alumni.
All monies raised from sponsorships, donations by patrons & golfers of monetary gifts or prizes will be placed in the Whitley County Community Foundation and used for scholarships.
