Sun Country Amateur Golf Association Scholarship

Since its inception in 1984 by Mr. and Mrs. Max Webb, the SCAGA Scholarship Fund honors the memory of Dwight Teed. Mr. Teed served as an original member of the Sun Country Board of Directors. The fund has been distributing funds to worthy recipients for over twenty years. Currently the Scholarship Fund allocates four $1,500 scholarships to students that achieved excellence in the classroom, present themselves as excellent citizens, have a connection with the game of golf, need financial assistance and are come highly recommended by credible sources. 

The scholarship is not dependent upon golfing ability, but rather an award of excellence encouraging the student to continue his or her involvement in school and golf. About one-half of the funding comes from the Dwight Teed gift accounts, and the other half is raised through tournament sponsorship and individual contributions. You can assist us in our efforts to help deserving students by donating to the fund.
