In loss — hope and a view forward

Lincoln County students will be better positioned for a shot at their dreams due to the memory of a man lost at sea. Edgar Ruiz Garcia and Anastasia Flatt are local recipients of the Dorothy and Clifford Hall Memorial Scholarship, each receiving $500. A scholarship for $1,000 went to Kai Daniels.

Students must turn in an essay and transcripts and meet other requirements. >click to read<17:37
