Congratulations to Our 2011 Scholarship Recipients!

Through generous financial giving of Darke Buckeyes past and present, service, and fundraising, the Alumni Club was once again able to award the brightest and best graduating Seniors from Darke County high schools with academic scholarships for the 2011-12 academic year. Four prospective students were selected by a panel of interviewers to receive a scholarship that this year resulted in an $1,823 per student award.

(L-R) Taylor Piel (Arc HS), Nicole Williams (Ans HS),
Blake Williams (Vers HS), Mark Albright (Arc HS)

This year our four recipients were Mark Albright of Arcanum, Blake Williams of Versailles, Nicole Williams of Ansonia, and Taylor Piel of Arcanum. Mark Albright of Arcanum plans on going to Pharmaceutical School and trying out for the TBDBITL as a drummer. Blake Williams of Versailles plans on entering the Honors program for Computer Engineering. Nicole Williams of Ansonia High School (with Alumni Parents of Pat and Rhonda Williams) plans on entering the Honors Program for International Studies. Lastly, Taylor Piel of Arcanum is planning on entering the Honors Program for Physics but also plans on furthering her education into Dentistry/Orthodontics.

We are very proud of our local high schools and are thankful to be able to honor Darke's finest.

Congrats to Mark, Blake, Nicole and Taylor!
