The Saint Patricks Day Golf Classic Charitable Trust has awarded Scholarships to the year 12 students. They were selected by Mahurangi College Staff as the most deserving of those who applied to take up the scholarships. Trustee Bob Nelligan notes that the cost of each course is over $4,500 including air fares but the benefits of the skills and lessons learnt on the course by these young people as they approach adulthood is invaluable.
The St Patricks Day Charitable Trust raises the funds for this and other donations, by holding an annual golf tournament at the North Shore Golf Club. Next year’s Tournament will be the 25th continuous event. The total number of Scholarships to Outward Bound awarded by the Trust now stands at 22.
