JOHN DAY — The 16th annual Blue Mountain Healthcare Foundation golf scramble fundraiser held on Saturday, July 8, more than doubled the total raised during last year’s event, bringing in just over $13,000, according to a preliminary tally.

More than 70 golfers made their way to the John Day Golf Club to participate in the scramble-style tournament, according to the foundation’s public relations director, Jena Knowles, more than doubling last year’s turnout of 32 for the event.

Funds raised during the scramble will go toward the purchase of a new portable ultrasound machine for the Blue Mountain Hospital District. The cost of the new machine is around $60,000, Knowles said.
