The EDPA Las Vegas chapter, working in conjunction with the EDPA Foundation, held their 17th Annual Las Vegas Education Scholarship Golf Classic on June 6 at Bear’s Best Golf Club. More than 140 industry professionals attended the awards luncheon along with 95 golfers marking another record-breaking year for both attendance and funds generated. 
Education Scholarships were awarded to Arlene Rivera (pictured left with Rebecca Thompson) and Kaitlin Kozich, both children of Czarnowski Las Vegas employees. They are the first two recipients for 2019 with the national recipients to be named next month.
