Chamber will give ag scholarships for the 15th year at free breakfast

[March 06, 2014]  The annual Ag Scholarship Breakfast sponsored by the Lincoln/Logan County Chamber of Commerce will be on March 27 at 7 a.m. at Lincoln Christian University's Laughlin Center. The Ag Scholarship Breakfast, catered by Guzzardo's, is a free community event that will celebrate its 15th anniversary.

In the history of the breakfast, $98,000 has been awarded in scholarships to high school seniors and college students who are pursuing an education in agriculture-related fields and have aspirations to return to Logan County. The chamber's ag committee feels that the key to the future of agriculture in Logan County is to invest in these bright young students.

This year's speaker is Abrigail Temple, a past recipient of the scholarship. She will be sharing her journey and how the scholarship and Logan County have affected her life.

The Ag Scholarship Breakfast is designed to recognize the economic impact of agriculture in Logan County and to honor the scholarship recipients. The breakfast is possible due the generosity of many Logan County businesses.

The event directly reflects the chamber's mission to advocate, support and unify local businesses for the prosperity of Logan County.
