Blake Austin, a junior at First Flight High School, accepted a new set of Calloway golf clubs and a personalized golf bag purchased with proceeds from the 2022 Dr. Scott B. Anthony Golf Grant presented by the Duck Woods Country Club Men’s Golf Association. Austin will also receive two golf lessons from the Duck Woods Golf professional staff as part of the grant. Blake is currently participating in his second year on First Flight’s golf team.

The grant is established by the Anthony family in memory of Dr. Scott B. Anthony, a retired orthopedic surgeon and former Duck Woods member. “The purpose of the award is to promote the values and enjoyment which are part of the game of golf among local youth,” stated a DWCC press release. “This is the sixth year the grant has been awarded by the Duck Woods Men’s Golf Association to an aspiring golfer in attendance at one of our local High Schools.”

Grant applications are provided annually to the Duck Woods Men’s Golf Association by the athletic directors and golf coaches at First Flight, Manteo and Currituck County high schools. Candidates include both male and female aspiring golfers.
