Wonderful news Isla!!!
Your path is bright!!!
⛳🌟 The Roscommon County Community Foundation is proud to recognize Isla Schaeffer as the recipient of the Jim “Smitty” Smith Athletic Summer Scholarship! 🌟⛳
This summer, Isla will attend the Nike Golf Camp at A-Ga-Ming Golf Resort, where she will spend four days sharpening her golf skills through professional instruction focused on full swing, short game, and putting. The camp is led by collegiate coaches from Central Michigan University and Bowling Green State University and will provide Isla the opportunity to continue growing both as a golfer and teammate. 🏌️♀️💙
For Isla, golf is much more than a sport — it is a passion that has shaped her leadership, confidence, and determination. While attending camp will help strengthen her own game, she also hopes to bring back everything she learns to continue encouraging and supporting her teammates at Roscommon High School.
Knowing there was no girls golf team at the high school prior to her arrival, Isla helped pave the way for the return of girls golf in Fall 2025. Through her leadership and dedication, she helped create an opportunity for other students to become involved in the sport she loves. During her first season, she earned a trip to the state finals at Ferris State University — an accomplishment she will carry with her forever. ⛳👏
Isla shared that golf provides “the perfect balance between an individual and a team sport,” allowing her to focus, grow, and challenge herself while building strong relationships with others.
Beyond athletics, Isla is known as an exceptional student leader. She serves as Class President and is actively involved in Student Council, consistently leading with kindness, integrity, and respect. Her teachers and coaches describe her as hardworking, dependable, compassionate, and someone who naturally motivates those around her. They praise her positive attitude, commitment to teamwork, and ability to handle every situation with class and maturity. 🌟
Whether in the classroom, on the course, or in the community, Isla leads by example and represents Roscommon with pride. Congratulations, Isla! We are excited to see all the incredible things your future holds. 💫💙
