M
ore than 30 golfers teed off at The Creeks Golf Resort in Cave Springs Aug. 17, 2021, to raise money for the Randy Kemp Memorial Scholarship Fund. Kemp was the AAC’s first communications director. He joined AAC in 2008 after a successful career in newspapers. He died in a motorcycle accident in August 2011. The Randy Kemp Memorial Scholarship aims to raise funds for scholarships for descendants of county officials or employees who intend to pursue a college degree in communications. The 2021 Randy Kemp Memorial Scholarship was awarded to University of Central Arkansas freshman Jacey Howerton. She is the step-daughter of Carroll County Justice of the Peace Craig Hicks. AAC extends its appreciation those who support the fund, the golfers and sponsors.
