For several decades, the Wauseon Chamber of Commerce (WCC) has held a golf outing with much of the proceeds going for scholarships for graduating seniors at Wauseon High School. A few years ago, the Board of the WCC decided to expand the role of their executive director from a part-time to a full-time position and hired retired local businessman Bill Drummer. The Board’s very wise decision immediately paid dividends.

At the time of Bill’s arrival, the golf outing was attracting 12 to 14 teams and giving our two to three $1000 scholarships. In each of the past three years, however, the outing, held annually at Ironwood Golf Club, has hosted more than 30 teams and now gives out five to six $1000 scholarships to deserving WHS students.

“We’ve had over 30 (teams) the last three years and we have 50 hole-sponsors and 17 major sponsors this year,” explained Bill. “We gave away six scholarships last year and this year we’re giving away five.” The funds raised at this year’s outing will go towards scholarships for WHS students in the class of 2020.
