Osage City Chamber of Commerce Awards Scholarships
This year, the Chamber received several excellent applications for the scholarships. The applicants demonstrated outstanding scholastic achievements and community service. The scholarship requires students to submit an application, two letters of reference, an official transcript and an essay covering “The Advantages of Owning and Operating a Business in a Small Town”.
The revenue from the $5 that residents pay to be listed on the maps for the spring/fall garage sales, goes directly for these two scholarships.
The Osage City Chamber of Commerce are pleased to announce Georgia Hutton and Carter Swindale as the 2018 recipients of our $250 scholarships. Georgia, daughter of Troy and Kerri Hutton will be attending Full Sail University in Florida. Georgia is enrolled in the Bachelor of Music Business. After her graduation, she hopes to obtain a job in the music industry and be a positive role model for girls and young musicians. Georgia’s end goal is to own her own production company and start a music label that promotes a positive image of music. Carter, son of Kevin and JJ Swindale and Tricia Gundy will be attending Emporia State University in the fall. Carter will be part of the Men’s Track and Field team as a thrower. He plans to get his degree in Biology/Pre-Physical Therapy. He will then apply to a Doctorate Program to get his degree as a Physical Therapist. Carter eventually wants to come back to Osage City and work in their family practice. We would like to wish Georgia and Carter the best of luck as they embark on the next chapter of furthering their education.
