The Toledo Academy of Pharmacy will host its annual golf outing Wednesday, June 13, at the Bedford Hills Golf Club in Temperance, Mich.

This year, the event will honor Dr. Robert J. “Doc” Schlembach, professor emeritus of pharmacology, who taught at The University of Toledo for more than four decades. The UT alumnus passed away Dec. 16 at the age of 93.

Schlembach held the position of both interim dean and associate dean of the College of Pharmacy, and served on several University committees over the years. He was honored by the Toledo Academy of Pharmacy as Pharmacist of the Year in 1965 and received one of the University’s Outstanding Teacher Awards in 1967.

During the outing, attendees will play an 18-hole scramble featuring various contests, including longest drive and closest to the pin.

There also will be a dinner provided by Shorty’s Barbecue followed by the event along with a prize raffle and auction.

Non-golfers are encouraged to attend the dinner or sponsor students who are playing during the day.

Proceeds from the outing or donations made to the Toledo Academy of Pharmacy Fund will go toward scholarships for talented and promising pharmacy students.
