The inaugural event for the Jack Shea Memorial Scholarship Scramble will be played Saturday October 15th with a 11 AM Shotgun. The Board is establishing this scholarship in Jack’s honor to benefit AGC’s junior golfers, who were one of Jack’s special interests both personally and professionally. His family members have signed off on this and feel that it is a perfect tribute to him.
This is also the date of the Annual Meeting for the Amherst Golf Club Board of Directors.  In recent years, the club has had a 9-hole member’s scramble and a BBQ lunch prior to the annual meeting. So this event will now become the Jack Shea Memorial Scholarship Scramble. Entry fee is $20 which includes food and scholarship donation. Both members and non members are welcome, so gather together your team (4,5,6 players) and call Dave Twohig at 256-6894 to register by Friday, Oct. 7.   The field is limited to 16 groups so start your planning now!
