12TH ANNUAL ADAM D. NEVELLS MEMORIAL GOLF OUTING & CENTER The Adam D. Nevells Memorial Fund is in its twelfth year and as of the 2021 distribu-tions has provided over $42,000 total through individual annual scholarships & grants to the areas Adam held most dearly: Academics, Music, Athletics, Boy Scouts, and his Church. Through the continued efforts and support from our community, sponsors, and partici-pants, over these many years, the annual Adam D. Nevells Memorial Golf Outing & Din-ner has facilitated the continued growth of the Adam D. Nevells Memorial Fund. This overwhelming and heart felt support is the driving force behind the now $131,997.64 balance in Adam’s memorial fund. This base amount provides the annual interest earned that will ensure Adam’s Fund will be able to provide the annual scholar-ships and distributions back to a community he loved and was so deeply loved by, forev-er. SAVE THE DATE This year the golf outing will be held on Sunday, August 22: 12 pm registration, 1 pm shotgun start, and dinner at 5 pm. Participation will be limited to 144 golfers. To sign up, contact Mike Nevells at 517-285-8733 or [email protected] . Alternative-ly, register online/sponsor this event at: https://squareup.com/store/okemos-wrestling-inc .
