Shotgun start 11 AM. This annual golf tournament benefits the Adam J.<br />
Skinner Memorial Scholarship of the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation. In<br />
the 20 years since the tournament was established, more than $111,000<br />
has been given to the Adam Skinner Memorial Scholarship.<br />
The <strong>Cypress</strong>-Fairbanks Educational Foundation<br />
(CFEF) makes it possible to award the scholarship in Adam’s name for years<br />
to come. The scholarship is funded by family and friends on holidays and<br />
Adam’s birthday and a large portion has been donated from some of the<br />
proceeds from the Adam J. Skinner Memorial Golf Tournament every year.<br />
The Skinners wanted the scholarship to be given to a student who emulates<br />
some of Adam’s traits and interests, someone who is outgoing, optimistic<br />
and extremely energetic, possibly playing team sports, choir, high school<br />
drama, debate or Boy Scouts of America participation. Thanks to these golf<br />
tournaments, the scholarship amount was increased to $12,000 in 2017<br />
and is available to any eligible <strong>Cypress</strong>-Fairbanks ISD graduating student.<br />

SHOTS FOR HOLLY SLATES ANNUAL KICKOFF<br />
Flu season is around the corner and the Shots for Holly crew is gearing up<br />
for its busiest time of the year. Founder and president, Dr. Michelle Becker,<br />
said the group’s annual kickoff party is slated for Saturday, <strong>September</strong><br />
8 th , 2-5 PM at Creekwood Grill, 12710 Telge Road, <strong>Cypress</strong>, Texas 77429. A<br />
kickoff party might seem odd for flu season, but this is the fifth year the<br />
organization has held such an event. There will be a few silent auction<br />
items and Chinese raffle items. Proceeds from the auction and raffle will<br />
help us cover the cost of flu shots for those in need. The band SoulShine<br />
will be on-hand to provide the soundtrack for the afternoon.<br />
Shots for Holly is a 501(c)(3) charity organization. In <strong>2018</strong>, Shots for Holly<br />
was named the CyFair Houston Chamber of Commerce’s Nonprofit of the<br />
Year. For more information, go to www.shotsforholly.org.<br />
