  TOMS RIVER – Enjoy a nice game of golf while raising funds for scholarships! The Ocean County College Foundation’s 20th Annual Golf Classic will take place on October 12 at Pine Barrens Golf Club in Jackson.

  This event is held every year to benefit the Foundation and their goal to make higher education more available to Ocean County residents through scholarships and awards.

  Everyone is invited to participate in the event. You can register to golf, become a sponsor or contribute an item to the prize board by visiting ocean.edu. Registration and brunch will begin at 9:30 a.m. followed by a shotgun start at 11 a.m.

   “Since 1965 the OCC Foundation has provided support for thousands of deserving students,” Michael B. York, Chair of the OCC Foundation Board, said. “In fact, with your help, our Foundation has awarded over $17.5 million in direct scholarship support to local students and contributions to the college’s programs. Without the support of our friends in the community, this would not have been possible.

  “Please consider supporting the OCC Foundation’s mission. Every little bit helps!” York added. “Thank you in advance for making a difference that will impact our students’ lives for years to come.”
