CANYON, Texas — West Texas A&M University supporters will hit the links July 9 for the eighth annual WTAMU Foundation Golf Classic.
Thirty teams have registered for the tournament, which begins at 1 p.m. July 9 at Ross Rogers Golf Course, 722 N.W. 24th Ave. in Amarillo. Check-in and lunch begin at 11:30 a.m.
A limited number of spots are still available for the tournament, which raises funds for faculty grants through the WTAMU Foundation, which strives to fulfill the vision of WT being a regionally responsive research University, as laid out in WT 125: From the Panhandle to the World.
Faculty grants, awarded following an application process, are meant to support the teaching, research and service of faculty, as well as professional development.
The Foundation accepts gifts, both current and planned, for the support of the University, its students, faculty, and programs. A variety of giving vehicles are available, and gifts can be structured to meet the donor's philanthropic goals while providing maximum tax or estate planning benefits.
Sponsorship and player registration costs range from $500 to $5,000.
To register for the tournament, visit wtamu.edu/giving/foundation/golf-classic/index.html or contact Lisa Hoff Davis at 806-651-2990 or lhdavis@wtamu.edu.
