STAUNTON, Va. — Federated member Motown Automotive will hold its 14th annual golf classic on Monday, Aug. 10 at the Oak Pointe Country Club in Brighton, Mich. Proceeds from the annual outing will be donated to the Amie J. Litzinger M.D. Endowed Scholarship Fund to help provide scholarships to deserving students attending the University of Toledo medical school.
“Our annual golf outing is a great time to thank our customers, have some fun and give back by donating the tournament proceeds to such a worthwhile cause, the Amie Litzinger Scholarship Fund,” said Jim Sechrist, owner of Motown Automotive. “We want to thank our vendor partners for sponsoring this year’s tournament. They are instrumental in making this outing a must-attend event. It promises to be an enjoyable day with some great surprises for the participants.”
