‘Tis the season to be jolly – and to support local students with scholarships.
You can do both by purchasing a natural wreath from the Herkimer Region College & Career Scholarship Foundation. The annual wreath sale helps provide financial assistance to technical scholars through awards the foundation gives out each year.
Each wreath is 16 to 18 inches and is professionally made with natural evergreen boughs and decorated with a large bow.
The wreaths cost $25 each. Wreaths must be ordered by Monday, Nov. 18. They will be available for pickup on Monday, Dec. 2, at the Herkimer BOCES William E. Busacker Complex at 352 Gros Blvd. in Herkimer.
If you are interested in purchasing a wreath in support of the foundation’s college and career scholarships, contact Kelly Mills at Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego BOCES at 315-867-2000, extension 3062. You can also contact Sarah Crowe or any other member of the foundation.
The Herkimer Region College & Career Scholarship Foundation is a not-for-profit community scholarship foundation. Local citizens from many professions work voluntarily as a group to generate scholarship funds for graduates of technical programs in the region.
The foundation provides scholarships to students in technical programs at Herkimer BOCES and its 10 component school districts: Central Valley, Dolgeville, Frankfort-Schuyler, Herkimer, Little Falls, Mount Markham, Owen D. Young, Poland, Richfield Springs and West Canada Valley.
