Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

Great Support for KACC Annual Golf Outing

One of the philosophies of Director Don Fay is to share good news as often as possible.  

In that vein, Director Fay wants everyone to know who supports the KACC Spaulding Lawrence Scholarship Program and our annual Memorial Outing.  If it weren't for the consistent support we receive from our community, we certainly will  not be in a position to offer annual scholarships honoring Bruce Spaulding and Michael Lawrence, two former Career Center Instructors.

Proceeds from the golf outing and the sponsor support we receive are turned into  scholarships offered to KACC senior students.  Students then have the opportunity to utilize the funds for continuing education in a career or technical field as well as a traditional 2 or 4 year college.
