Dollars go to Scholars

The Wahkiakum Dollars for Scholars Non-Traditional Scholarship committee has announced the recipients of their 2008 scholarships.

Thanks to a generous donation from the John C. Thomas Memorial Scholarship Fund and an anonymous donor, the group was able to fund six scholarships.

Scholarships of $1,000 were awarded to Erynn Grasseth, Rachael Gerlach and Sean Reichert; a $500 scholarship was awarded to Phillip Most. Erik Schillios and Brenden McClain were awarded $250 each.

The Non-Traditional scholarships are available to past graduates of Wahkiakum High School and current residents of Wahkiakum County.

To continue the group's efforts for the next round of scholarships available next summer, donations may be made to Dollars for Scholars at P.O. Box 498, Cathlamet, WA 98612.
