The event – designed to assist local students who have demonstrated academic motivation but lack the financial resources to attend college – will be
held on Monday, June 1 at The Bull at Boone’s Trace. The inaugural event in 2008 raised $30,000 and funded six scholarships for BCTC students. Celebrities scheduled to participate in this year’s event include: — former Green Bay Packer and Super Bowl I & II Champion Donny Anderson — University of Kentucky and Pittsburgh Steelers great Dermontti Dawson — former U.K. and New York Giants quarterback Jared Lorenzen and other Kentucky Horsemen players — former U.K. basketball great Derrick Hord. “My will and my determination have gotten me this far,” said scholarship recipient Daniela Hodges. “With ACS’ support, nothing will stop me now.”
“The Winners for Life Foundation is delighted to once again help students in the Lexington area reach their dreams of a college education,” said Anderson. “The second annual golf tournament is a great example of the Lexington community reaching out to support deserving students who may not otherwise have the chance to attend college.”
