went to the scholarship meeting. there are 2 separate scholarships. we received 13 essays. the committee will read and re-read and then pick the top ones. we do the same for the applicants for the other scholarship, but those aren't due in yet.
i really enjoy being on the committee. fundraising always makes me nervous, but reading the essays and finding good ones gives me hope for our young people just starting out.
we hear bad things about kids every day-these kids shine.
