At the Bret Harte Senior Awards night 5 Copperopolis students - Jacob Phillips, Brittany Schulte, Dakota Morlan, Jordan Bird and Sean Hale - were the lucky recipients of a $1000.00 scholarship each from the Lake Tulloch Lions Club.
The scholarship program is open to all Copperopolis seniors "meeting an acceptable combination of broad based criteria including GPA, school activities and need." Said Greg Mayer, scholarship committee chair. The scholarship monies may be used on education at the recipients discretion, where their greatest need lay.
Over the past 15 years the number of recipients has grown from just a few to now five with the help of a generous community. Funds raised for the scholarship are from the Lake Tulloch Lions many community events, such as the yearly Crab Feed and the Car Show.
If your student would like more information on how to apply for the 2013/2014 Lake Tulloch Lions Club Scholarship they may contact Carla Rolleri at Bret Harte when school resumes in the fall.
