One of the staples of Rhinelander basketball games has been missing this year, but that has not stopped the Rhinelander Area Scholarship Foundation from raising money for its cause. Associated Bank has donated $2,000, doubling down on its yearly contribution as the sponsor of the foundation's Half Court Shot contest.

RASF spokesperson John O'Melia stated that the foundation has been unable to conduct the half court shot contest at boys' basketball games, and 50/50 raffle at girls' basketball games, due to the ongoing ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic, "but we are still fundraising and we would like to let your readers know about this generous donation and that the Foundation is looking forward to being able to return to our fundraising activities at the RHS games," he said.

According to the RASF's website, the foundation was established in 1991 and has awarded $367,350 in scholarships to 465 students in that timeframe. More information regarding the RASF can be found in its website, www.rhinelanderasf.org.
