Pictured above are some of the volunteers who helped make the tournament a success.

The "Save-A-Life" for Geno Foundation was founded in 2008 in honor of Gene "Geno" Campbell who attended Pattonville High School and Marquette High School.  The Foundation has been holding golf tournaments every year since its founding in order to establish Endowment Scholarships in Gene "Geno" Campbell's honor for students with a dream of a college education.

This year the Endowment Scholarship Program provided financial assistance to four high school junior students in the St. Louis City Public School District and plans to continue its efforts.

Below is a group photo of this year's recipients.
