Additional sponsors included Acropolis Investment Management LLC, AmerenUE, Ameristar Casino Resort Spa, Charter Business, Commerce Bank, Dettmer Homes, FastLane Convenience Stores, Heffernan Insurance Brokers, NHC HealthCare and Rehabilitation, Regions Bank, RX Systems, THF Realty Inc. and UPS.

“We are fortunate to have so many partners in our community dedicated to helping students achieve their college dream by coming out year after year to make this event a success,” said McKee.

Stacey Lutgen, training manager at Ameristar Casino, and Seth Peimann, administrator at NHC HealthCare and Rehabilitation, were co-chairs of the planning committee for this year’s golf scramble. “Stacey and Seth have been involved with the golf event for the past three years and they are both incredible volunteers.
