Posted

The Warsaw Elks Lodge recently presented the Kosciusko County Community Foundation with a check for $2,720 from the proceeds of its 13th Annual Jimmy Baker Memorial Diabetes Fund golf scramble, which was held at Rozella Ford Golf Course July 14. Eighty-eight golfers enjoyed the scramble followed by a steak dinner held at the Elks Lodge. Members of the winning golf team included Jerry and Sue Noppert, Doug Hale and Kurt Brown. The gift will support the Jimmy Baker Memorial Diabetes Fund, a component fund of the Kosciusko County Community Foundation. The fund was established by the Elks in memory of longtime member Jimmy Baker and helps individuals in need of assistance with their diabetes treatment. Proceeds from the golf scramble also provided two scholarships, which were awarded by the Elks, to Asia O'Connor and Julia Warren.
