FOREST AKERS SCHOLARSHIP

In 2019 Detroit Golf Club Caddie Scholarship Foundation took over administration of the Forest H. Akers Scholarship at Michigan State University under the oversight of the Board of Directors of Detroit Golf Club. This Scholarship was established by former Detroit Golf Club member Forest H. Akers in 1957. One scholarship will be awarded annually for a Detroit Golf Club caddie or a son or daughter of a full time employee of Detroit Golf Club. The Forest H. Akers Scholarship covers the cost of full tuition, room rent, books and laboratory fees at Michigan State University. The Scholarship will be for a term of four years at Michigan State University provided the scholar regularly and diligently pursues his or her course of studies and maintains a scholastic rating and standing satisfactory to Michigan State University.

This is a tremendous opportunity for Detroit Golf Club caddies and the sons and daughters of full time employees of the Club. This is another way in which Detroit Golf Club Caddie Scholarship Foundation and Detroit Golf Club are helping our caddies and the sons and daughters of full time employees to achieve their higher educational dreams.
