ASHLAND — The ninth annual Runyan Memorial Tournament is set for Aug. 8 at 9 a.m. at the Ashland Golf Club.
“We had a fantastic year in 2019 again and are hoping for another successful outing this year,” said Matt Hauser, president of the tournament. “2020 is the 10th anniversary of the passing of our friend, 1st Lt. Michael L. Runyan, who was killed by a roadside bomb while serving in Iraq in 2010.”
Since then, the Runyan Memorial has offered an opportunity for the community to connect and reflect on the wonderful life he shared and to recognize his brave sacrifice.
“For the past few years, we have been proud to support The Michael L. Runyan Memorial Scholarship, Brookside Jr. Golf Program, and the AHS Boys and Girls golf teams,” Hauser said. “To date, we have raised nearly $30,000 in support of those causes. ‘
“We will continue our support for those causes, while also exploring new ways we can have an impact on veterans and the community.”
