Weatherford, OK – The Southwestern Oklahoma State University Foundation, Incorporated (SWOSUF) hosted its first-ever Chairman’s Tower Shoot recently. The premium event was organized to benefit scholarships for SWOSU students from southwest Oklahoma.

We are deeply grateful to the sponsors and shooters who so generously participated in our first Tower Shoot and made the event such a success,” said SWOSUF Chairman of the Board of Trustees Mr. Michael D. Hart, ’06, of Edmond. “Over $60,000 was raised and we look forward to next year’s gathering.”

In addition to generous underwriting support from M&M Hart Consulting, Incorporated and King Legal PLLC, this year’s Shoot was generously sponsored by:

  • PC Promotions, the event’s Gear Sponsor. PC Promotions has provided its clients with services that enhance brand awareness with personal attention and creative solutions since the company was established in 2001 by Jody Cunningham, ’86.

The Shoot was held at Black Oak Farms in Devol, Oklahoma.

Lunch was served between rounds.
