The Gideon Lincecum chapter has awarded $1,000 scholarships to four high school seniors from Austin, Colorado, Fayette, and Washington counties. These outstanding 4H and FFA participants were selected after undergoing a rigorous application and interview process. The scholarships will be put to good use as they start their college educations this Fall. Join us in congratulating these leaders of our future: John Owen – Austin County, Zane Wanjura – Colorado County, Bethany Janner – Washington County, and Julie Korenek – Fayette County,
The chapter was honored to present the scholarships at a “virtual” award ceremony on July 16 as part of the Chapter Meeting. All four students were able to attend and talk to us online.

Thanks to Donna Zapalac Mueller, Chapter Scholarships Chair, and Kara Matheney, Texas AgriLife Advisor for all their work to make the scholarships happen during this very challenging time.
