9th Annual Community Connections Golf Tournament raises more than $15,000 for Southeast Technical Foundation

On May 22, 2014, 108 golfers turned out at the 9th Annual Community Connections Golf Tournament, a benefit event for Southeast Technical Foundation.  The tournament took place under clear blue skies at Mt. Frontenac Golf Course. The event was sponsored by Prairie Island Indian Community and raised more than $15,000 this year, funding which is critical to providing scholarships for Southeast Technical students.

"We extend our heartfelt thanks to all of the organizations and individuals who sponsored the event and provided donations for our silent auction and prizes," said Chris Schabow, director of the Southeast Technical Foundation. "Thanks also to the volunteers who made everything work so smoothly. It was an absolutely beautiful day for golf, and helped us build closer relationships with our many friends in the Red Wing area."
