WARSAW — The Warsaw Elks Lodge recently presented the Kosciusko County Community Foundation with a check for $2,720 from its 13th Annual Jimmy Baker Memorial Diabetes Fund golf scramble, held at Rozella Ford Golf Course July 14.

A field of 88 participated in the outing, which was followed by a steak dinner 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 diabetes treatments. 

Proceeds from the golf scramble also provided two scholarships, which were awarded by the Elks, to Asia O’Connor and Julia Warren. For more information about the Elks, visit their website at www.elks.org.
