Dear Friend, On behalf of the JonCade Thomas Clemons Memorial Scholarship Fund, we extend our thanks to you for participating and contributing to the 5th Annual Sporting Clay Tournament held this past March. Because of your generosity, we raised over $130,000 in funds for scholarship distribution to area graduates. Your contributions allow us to give back to the community in loving memory of JonCade. Recently, our selection committee of two retired educators, one current educator, and one retired oilfield manager completed the recipient list of this year’s scholarships.
