Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity at the University of Nebraska at Kearney is hosting the first annual Dr. Kent Estes Memorial Golf Tournament Saturday, April 30, at the Kearney Country Club.
After fighting a battle with cancer and then returning to the classroom last fall, Dr. Kent Estes, a long-time UNK professor of counseling and educational psychology, passed away in January. In his memory, two scholarships are being established at UNK.
The golf tournament is being held to help raise funds for those scholarships.
The tournament will begin at 8 a.m. at Kearney Country Club. The tournament will be a four-man scramble with all proceeds going to the scholarship fund. The cost for each team member will be $75, which will include cart rental, 18 holes of golf and lunch.
The registration fee will be paid on the day of the tournament. To participate in the event, individuals are asked to e-mail their four-man team to Ryan Gildea at gildearj@unk.edu.
Those who are unable to participate, but would like to donate to the scholarship fund, can contact Cody Sasek, Pi Kappa Alpha president, at sasekca@unk.edu or (402) 641-7278.
