Events

The Southern Crescent Technical College Foundation sponsors the following events during the calendar year.

Drive “Fore” Education Invitational Golf Tournament

The Southern Crescent Technical College Foundation will host the Drive “Fore” Education Invitational Golf Tournament on November 12, 2024 at Heron Bay Golf & Country Club in Locust Grove, GA. The tournament will begin at 8:30 a.m. with a Lauderdale format.

As Southern Crescent Technical College serves the eight counties of Henry, Spalding, Fayette, Jasper, Butts, Lamar, Pike, and Upson, the Foundation seeks representation from all of the eight counties with sponsorships and teams. Contests during the tournament include million dollar shoot out, hole in one, putting, longest drive, and closest to the pin. Awards are given to the lowest scores of five teams. Proceeds from the tournament benefit Southern Crescent Technical College.

Food and Wine Pairings

In partnership with the Culinary Arts Advisory Committee, the Southern Crescent Technical College Foundation sponsors an annual Food and Wine Pairings Event on the Griffin Campus each spring.  For nine years the fundraiser has raised funds for scholarships for students in the Culinary Arts Program. The event has grown in size and has become one of the most popular events on the Griffin Campus. In addition to the many scholarships that have been funded from the proceeds of this event, 18 students have received a travel abroad scholarship to Kendal College in England. Approximately 200 individuals attend this popular event which is funded from corporate sponsorships and individual ticket sales.
