Annual GenoaBank golf outing raises funds for scholarships

        Organizers announced the 21st Annual GenoaBank Golf Outing, held Sept. 13 at the Oak Harbor Golf Club, was a success, raising funds to provide scholarships to local students planning to major in business at a two or four-year college or university of their choice.
        This was a record-breaking year for the golf scramble, with 64 teams registered. This year, the money collected will benefit students from Cardinal Stritch, Clay, Danbury, Genoa, Lake, Maumee, Northwood, Northview, Oak Harbor, Perrysburg, Port Clinton, Put-in-Bay, Rossford, Southview, Waite and Woodmore.
        GenoaBank’s Annual Scholarship Golf Outing has provided scholarships to approximately 215 students since the bank began hosting this annual event.
        “Throughout the year, GenoaBank focuses on building relationships with the community; however, we most look forward to the Annual Golf Outing,” said Martin P. Sutter, president and CEO of GenoaBank. “It offers us a chance to bring together local, like-minded leaders, businesses and school administrators who gather with the purpose of giving back and swinging for education excellence.”
        The scholarships are presented to students, selected by their school, who have demonstrated academic success, and have an interest in pursuing a degree in finance or business at a two- or four-year college. Interested students at the aforementioned schools should contact their guidance department to be considered for a GenoaBank Scholarship.
        “We believe the lasting impact for these students has not only been personal development but also provides enhanced stability and growth for their family and for the community as well,” Sutter said. “Thank you to our volunteers, our valued customers, and all the donors and sponsors who continue to support this worthwhile outing.”
