Hopkinsvlle Community College FoundationHopkinsville, KY – Hopkinsville Community College Foundation’s 36th Annual Mike Foster Golf Scramble is set for Friday, October 2nd, 2026, with an 8:30am shotgun start at Hopkinsville Golf and Country Club.

Teams of four are invited to participate, and a variety of sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses and individuals who want to support the event and HCC students.

The golf scramble is the HCC Foundation’s largest fundraising event benefiting the college’s textbook scholarship program. Each year, the Foundation and HCC award approximately $40,000 in textbook scholarships to students. For many HCC students, assistance with the cost of books and supplies can make the difference between being able to enroll and being forced to delay their education.

The scramble offers opportunity to compete for cash and prizes, including $1,500 in team cash prizes, hole-in-one prizes of $30,000, $10,000 and $10,000, and gift prizes for longest putt, longest drive and closest to the pin. Golfers can also participate in a putting contest, 50/50 split pot, and skins game.

The event is named in honor of Mike Foster, an HCC alumnus who was a member of the college’s first graduating class. Foster is a longtime supporter of HCC, a former HCC Foundation board member and a former co-chair of the golf scramble.
