There
are only a few team spots still available for the inaugural IPS Golf
Classic on Friday, Aug. 26, 2016, at the
Brickyard Crossing! But time is quickly winding down on the chance to
participate in one of the most exciting fundraisers in the city.
Whether
you’re an established foursome or a single golfer looking to join a team, the
deadline to register for the golf scramble is Aug. 12.
Proceeds
from the fundraiser will go toward the 15 Career
Pathways to support our Career
Technology Center (CTC) student
scholarships, which have been identified to assist with academics for high
school students, as well as for college or career transition. The goal of CTC is
to ensure that all students are provided with excellent career pathway options
that are aligned to industry standards.
“Money
raised from the IPS Golf Classic means that our students
will not only have the confidence and skills to move into the next stage of
their lives (employed, enlisted, enrolled), but they will also have the means
to take that step immediately upon graduation,” said IPS Director of Career and
Technical Education Ben Carter.
“The ‘means’ allow our students to
continue in a positive trajectory toward achieving their career goals.
Continuing to remove barriers and increase access to high demand careers is
central to our mission at the Career Technology Center. We are grateful for the
support and participation of our community partners!”
Several of those partners — from
athletes and TV personalities to some of the top names and companies on the
local business scene — will hit the links at the IPS Golf Classic, not
only supporting the future of students but also competing for the chance to
walk away with arguably the most coveted prize of the day: A Dodge Challenger
Hellcat, donated by Champion Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.
Sounds
like fun for a great cause? We’re inviting you to join us! It will be a fun
time for everyone — from experienced golfers to novices simply wanting to
practice their swing.
With
your participation, you will not only support students but also employers
throughout Indiana, as they seek to provide qualified high school graduates in
and around the city of Indianapolis.
