The Munose family of South Holland has worked as Caddies with four out of five children, who work hard and achieve a college scholarship.
Recently, 18 -year -old twins Arzazu and Christopher were awarded a housing and tuition scholarship for Caddies, the Chik Evans Scholarship of the Western Golf Association, priced at $ 125,000 for each twin in four years.
Twins are senior at Thornwood High School and are planning to attend Urbana-Shampain University at the University of Illinois. Aranjazu will study trade and marketing and plan to go to Christopher schemes in finance and investment banking.
“The way I thought about it, if I did not get this scholarship, then I have to do something else that I have to do in college.
His elder brother, Jonathan started cadding when he was in high school and also received an evan scholarship in 2014, Aranzzu said. After his brother working as a caddy and looking at college education from experience as finance, he said that he decided to try Cadding when he was 15 years old.
“He really helps us, just make everything easy.
Every summer and most of the days from classes during school year, Christopher said that he worked at the Olympia Fields Country Club.
Aranzzu said that the job has taught him patience. Christopher said that Cadding has taught him that he does a good job in a team.
Christopher said, “It is incredible that the kind of people you meet, and not only the things they talk about, but also the things they can teach you and with the opportunities that they can help you and the people there are best,” Christopher said.
The Evans Scholars Foundation was established in 1930 with a mission to provide full tuition scholarship to Caddies with limited financial instruments. According to the Western Golf Association website, Caddies needs to show a strong caddy record, excellent academics and to demonstrate financial needs and excellent characters.
Aranzzu said that more high school students should consider cadding as a job and then as a way to finance their education. As a caddy, students can enjoy outside days and meet interesting people.
Christopher said, “I do not understand that cadding is not the most famous work for any young child.
His younger brother started doing this cadding in the last summer, Christopher said, so twins are helping to learn ropes.
Christopher said, “He wanted to get into it as soon as possible.” “He really did well, he won the Ruki of the Year, so we are really happy to see him out of there.”
