A total of 33 students applied for the 2022-23 Henry C. Gardiner scholarship program, of which six applicants were accepted. The scholarship process takes into account academic standing, community service, work ethic and future goals.
“Henry was adamant that students should have the opportunities to succeed,” Mark Gardiner said.
“The six recipients of the Henry C. Gardiner scholarships are models for the level of excellence Dad would have appreciated.”
This year’s scholarships were awarded to: twin brothers Sage and Lukas Dierks, Douglass, KS; Joshua Waller, Hoehne, CO; Chesney Effling, Highmore, SD; Grace Knepp, Lincolnville, KS; and Riley Krehbiel, Kingman, KS. To date, 42 undergraduate students have received $195,500 in scholarships.
