Jim Lamarre Scholarship Fund
Welcome to the FundCar42 webpage. The Home of the Annual Captain Jim Lamarre Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournament.
If there was a picture of a person next to the definition of the word "dedication" in the dictionary, that picture would be of Jim Lamarre. Jim was a lifelong resident of the Town of Rocky Hill and after serving in the United States Army, Jim found the Rocky Hill Fire Department where he continued his community service for twenty-seven years. Working in many positions withing the department, Jim completed his career as a Staff Captain in charge of Recruitment and Retention and was also the head mechanic ensuring the Fire Apparatus were always ready to respond. Jim spent 27 years in the Rocky Hill Fire Department.
In March 2022, Jim lost his battle to cancer but his memory and legacy lives on in the Captain Jim Lamarre Scholarship Fund. The Scholarship Fund benefits students entering into Trade Schools, a necessity that Jim felt was always needed.
The Annual Captain Lamarre Memorial Scholarship Fundraiser is held each fall to raise money for the scholarship programs. Please consider joining us for this annual event. "You can hit 'em short, or hit 'em far, just come on out and honor Jimmy Lamarre."
