The Napa~Sonoma USBC Awards Two Scholarships

Tonight Bev Creech and Patrick Havens had the privilege of representing the Association in awarding two $1,000 Scholarships from our local Napa~Sonoma Association’s scholarship fund to two well deserving young women.

From Napa High we had Sara Curtis whose busy and active application also noted bowling as a child. An active Napa High Senior, our award was one a few she had gotten but one she showed extreme joy and was surprised at getting.

The second award recipient Kyndra Shaw was also one of the more active in the Association. A Student Representative for two years, Kyndra also represented our association at the California State Meeting. She currently is graduating from Duncan High School in Duncan, Oklahoma.
