Harley Elizabeth Hawkins wins E/MC Chamber Scholarship

Harley will attend Western Kentucky University with a major in agriculture education. After graduation she plans to return to Metcalfe County and begin teaching agriculture in a local school. She also plans to help manage the family farm operation.
The Edmonton-Metcalfe County Chamber of Commerce Memorial Scholarship is funded in part by donations made in memory of loved ones. An acknowledgement card is mailed to the family. This year's five hundred dollar scholarship was made possible by the memorial contributions made in memory of Truman "Slick" Harris, Curtis Boswell, Morris Lee Smith, Sue Clark Shive, Hildred "Pete" Jessie, Joe Anderson, James Howard Young, and Ruby Lowe Berry.
