SANTEE, S.C. (WACH / AP) -- Golf and health care are among the topics on the schedule as U.S. Rep. Jim Clyburn's brings the Rudolph Canzater Memorial Classic back to Santee.
The weekend of events starting Friday is named for the late Urban League official who also worked for the state Human Affairs Commission. It's the 22nd year the event has been held.
As many as 600 golfers are expected to play in this year's two-day event, which includes a Friday health fair for residents in the Interstate 95 corridor.
Proceeds from the event will provide about $400,000 of scholarships, computers and software to 100 students who either live in or attend college in the 6th Congressional District that Clyburn represents.
