HUTCHINSON, Kan. (September 18, 2019) – Through its seventh annual “Superior Boiler Shootout” event, Hutchinson’s Superior Boiler Inc., manufacturer of industrial watertube, Scotch Marine and vertical firetube boilers, recently raised $15,000 for two student scholarships. The Shootout, held August 28-29, benefitted the Hutchinson Community College Presidential Leadership Scholarship Program and the American Boiler Manufacturers Association’s Randy Rawson Scholarship Program. Funds raised at the Shootout provided $7,500 to each scholarship program.
This year’s Superior Boiler Shootout also included a shooting event, a new option for those who don’t golf but enjoy sporting guns.
“For the second year, Superior Boiler directed money raised at the Shootout to give deserving students access to additional educational funds,” said Doug Wright, CEO of Superior Boiler. “By dividing the money evenly, we were able to benefit both our industry association and the Hutchinson community. We’re impressed with and humbled by the number of participants in the 2019 event and grateful for their involvement in helping us raise funds for scholarships.”
The 2019 Shootout at Prairie Dunes was Superior’s largest to date, with 40 golfers and 12 shooters participating, including customers, sales representatives, industry partners and key suppliers.
Business partners that helped make the tournament possible included Nationwide Boiler, Oklahoma Boiler Equipment, Fee Insurance, Webster Combustion, Zeeco, First National Bank of Hutchinson, American Boiler, Wichita Burner, Power Flame, Hajoca, Oilon, Honeywell, Capitol Boiler Works, Leeco, Metal-Fab, Siemens Combustion Controls, Tulsa Fintube, MavTech Energy, Metals USA, Combustion Service and Equipment, Long Industries, Goes Heating Systems, W.C.
