COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – The Branch County Association of Realtors held its fifth annual White Elephant Scholarship Auction last Wednesday at the Broadway Grille.
The scholarship fund was renamed the Cliffie Bowers Memorial Scholarship. He was a member of the Realtors Association who lost his life in a traffic accident last Christmas Eve.
Over $4,700 was raised through the auction. Thanks to donations from his parents Cliff and Linda and his sister Sonya, the final amount raised was over $5,000.
The luncheon was sponsored by Branch County Abstract and Century Bank and Trust.
The B.C.A.R. awards $500 scholarships annually to local seniors.
