All Activities to Benefit Cleveland Scholarship Programs

It’s the fun AND the fund-raising season for WMJI-FM radio personality Jimmy Malone and his Malone Scholarship Fund at Cleveland Scholarship Programs.

His signature event, the Malone/Westfield Insurance Scholarship Golf Classic, will be held on July 12 this year at a new location -- the Westfield Group Country Club in Medina County. Westfield Insurance is the title sponsor; Applebee's and Cargill are the presenting sponsors.

Leading up to tee time will be a series of fundraising events to raise scholarship dollars. These range from a five-course dinner May 21 at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, to "Dining to Donate” days in June at local Applebee’s restaurants, and to a joint promotion in June and July with The Euclid Beach Boys rocket cars and Mitchell’s Ice Cream stores.

On Friday, May 21, The Malone Scholarship five-course dinner with hard-to-find wines will return to Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar on Chagrin Boulevard in Woodmere. Owner Cliff Cravens is donating 100 percent of the dinner’s $100 cost to the Malone Scholarship Fund. Go here to see the menu and call 216.896.9000 to make a reservation.

Starting on June 1, five local Applebee’s restaurants will each hold a Malone Scholarship day on rotating Tuesdays. To participate just download a certificate from the Malone Scholarship Web site, the WMJI Web site or below, and  the restaurant will donate 15 percent of a patron’s check to the Malone Scholarship Fund. Restaurant dining or Carside to Go is applicable. Each location will also have a bake sale and raffle for a foursome to the Malone/Westfield golf outing on July 12. ($400 minimum bid for this $2,500 value) 

On Thursday evenings, beginning on June 3, Mitchell’s Ice Cream stores along with The Euclid Beach Boys will offer rides from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on either the Antique Rock Ship Car or Thriller Car from Euclid Beach Park   Requested donation is $3 and 100 percent of the money raised will go to the Malone Scholarship Fund.  If bad weather threatens, call 440.460.0565 for schedule changes.
