Black was a longtime Chimacum High School teacher and founder and coach of the high school golf program for 35-plus years. He died in May 2020 and a scholarship fund was set up in his name by Friends of Chimacum Schools, the hosts of the tournament.
“Last year was an overwhelming success and we are hoping this year will far exceed those numbers,” said Marianne Walters of Friends of Chimacum Schools.
The four-person scramble will have a $400 entry fee per team, which includes green fees, cart use, lunch and on-course competitions.
Tee times will begin at 10 a.m.
