EVANS SCHOLAR FOUNDATION In 1929 famed golfer Chick Evans, Jr., himself at onetime an Exmoor member, asked the Western Golf Association to administer the fund he had established some years earlier to send caddies with excellent grades, strong character and financial need to college. The next year WGA awarded its first two scholarships. Since then more than 10,000 young men and women have been awarded full, four year scholarships to one of the 14 universities where the foundation operates a Scholarship House.
