Morton Golf Foundation College Scholarships Now Open to Local High School Students – Haggin Oaks

It’s that time of year again when the Morton Golf Foundation is proud to announce our MGF College Scholarship Application with local high school golf coaches to forward to their graduating seniors.

Each spring we award scholarships to deserving students who have been involved in the game of golf in the Sacramento region. Although our roots are in golf, so are these fairs not based on college golf, they are based on the student’s high school achievement, character, and future goals.

If you are a high school student with ties to golf and dream of furthering your education, this opportunity may be for you.
