Pioneer Club Kicks Off Campaign

The Tusculum College Pioneer Club, which supports the athletics programs at the college, kicked off its six-week fall campaign Thursday morning, August 20th. All funds raised by the group go to support student athletes from Greeneville and Greene County, primarily in the form of athletic scholarships. The Pioneer Club goal this year is $50,000, though according to Chair Kathy Knight, "we hope to surpass that so we can help even more students." Athletic enrollment is up at the college for this fall, said Tusculum College President Dr. Robert Knott.
