It really was an ordtak

en The annual auction is the only fundraiser we have. Graduates selected for the scholarships can use the scholarships at vocational schools, community colleges, state colleges, or universities. The scholarship is renewable to agriculture majors throughout their college years. Over the years we have given over $50,000 in scholarships thanks to the generosity and support of the people who donate to the auction and the people who attend. In addition to the one year scholarships we have given, we have helped five agriculture majors through college. The bottom line is all about helping the kids.

en None of my players are on full scholarships. Not a one. We had to give partial scholarships. But I think right now that's to our advantage. These kids are determined, and they want to play football really bad. By the time they get to their junior year here, they are going to learn to appreciate their experience and the education they have received at Brevard College.

en It isn't affecting wrestlers like Keith as much as it is the types of kids who could have gotten partial scholarships 20 years ago. With fewer schools and fewer scholarships you have kids who used to be able to get into college that just can't because of the numbers.

en Last year we gave six scholarships of $1,000 each. This year we would like to give four scholarships of two grand each. We decided to increase the amount given per student to help more with the cost of college such as books and enrollment fees.

en We help the kids that have a lot of talent but limited finances. Our goal is to use tennis as a way to help kids get college scholarships, while keeping them occupied in a sport that teaches them the lessons of life. You have to love what you do, and that rubs off on the kids and then they get inspired. I don't deserve an award, I am having the time of my life.

en We wanted to come back to Weehawken and talk to the kids about college. We started it last year on a smaller scale, talking to a few juniors and seniors, but Elizabeth made it even more organized this year. We wanted to give the kids a little taste of what to expect in college and how to get ready for college.

en Some kids just don't have anyone in their life who is pushing them into college or scholarships, supporting them -- or even making sure they get up in time to go to school.

en It's always great when you can get girls signing to Division I scholarships. I think we had some exceptional athletes around the area this year. The Central District this year was just loaded with talent, and to be honest, each year I seem to be more and more impressed with the skill level the freshmen coming in have. That really has a lot to do with the youth and club programs around here.

en The college kids are a big part of our client base, so we cater to them with healthier foods. And this store is more upscale than the Food Lions that people in Harrisonburg are familiar with.
