OP Golf Members’ Council announces 2021 scholarships
Tuesday, June 8, 2021
(June 9, 2021) The Ocean Pines Golf Members’ Council recently awarded five scholarships totaling $11,000 to local high school seniors.
The scholarship committee of the Golf Members’ Council each year honors students who have exhibited an interest in the game of golf, and who demonstrated exemplary academic and extracurricular records.
Bob Long, scholarship committee chairman, said awards are given on behalf of Ocean Pines Golf Club members that support the fund throughout the year.
He said members have raised more than $35,000 for scholarships over the last six years.
“This year’s $11,000 amount is by far the greatest and reflects the work put in by Scotty Wheatley who, for many years, chaired the Ocean Pines-Taylor Bank Scramble that helps raise funds for junior golf programs and scholarships,” Long said. “Scotty passed away this past February, and in his memory his friends contributed to the creation on a scholarship in his name.”
Long said awards for Worcester Preparatory School students were presented during the school’s graduation ceremony.
“The members were disappointed that Stephen Decatur was unable to hold its awards presentation night and are hopeful to present awards in person again, next year,” he said.
The 2021 recipients of the Ocean Pines Golf Members’ Council Scholarships are:

He will attend Arizona State University. Bescak was awarded $3,000.
