WSTFA 2025 Golf Tournament Pt 2
From the Ag Information Network, this is today’s Fruit Grower Report. As of today, August has arrived, so if you have not yet already done so, it’s time to get yourself registered for the 2025 Washington State Tree Fruit Association Golf Tournament.
WSTFA President Jon DeVaney says it’s a lot of fun for everyone and it helps fund college scholarships for the young folks in the industry through the Washington Apple Education Foundation …
DeVANEY … “It’s good timing now as school is finishing up for the academic year, to think about those students who will be going off to college next fall. And so many young people in rural areas and connected with agriculture find paying for college very challenging, as everyone does. But if your parents are seasonal workers or if you’re a first-generation college student, that’s particularly challenging.”
And those funds are very well managed …
DeVANEY … “As we heard from Jennifer Witherbee at WAEF recently on the podcast, those are a lot of challenges. And so, it’s great to turn a social event for our industry into further benefit for those college students just as they’re about to head off in the fall.”
So, to register for the 2025 WSTFA Golf Tournament? …
DeVANEY … “It should be available on our website, W-S-T-F-A or WSTFA dot org … www.wstfa.org
Which is handy for other things as well …
DeVANEY … “Always watch our website and make sure you’re signed up for our tree fruit topics newsletter. As important issues come up and new events are schedule, we send out updates.”
Again, the 2025 WSTFA Golf Tournament will be held in just a few weeks, Wednesday, August 27th at the Highlander Golf Course in East Wenatchee
