2008 Scholarship
Winners
The scholarship
committee of the World Championship Musky Classic recently
awarded a $4,000 scholarship to two Lakeland Union High School
seniors. The scholarships are given each year to North Lakeland
area students who will be attending an institution of higher
learning. The purpose of this scholarship is to honor Ben
Bendrick, a conservation warden who dedicated his life to the
preservation of the natural resources of the state of Wisconsin.
His efforts, on behalf of all of the people of the North
Lakeland area, serve as an inspiration and a model, which the
recipients of this award may emulate while building their own
productive lives.
Two very deserving
candidates received the award this year. Those students are
Lotus Norton-Wisla and Rebecca Fehlandt.
Lotus
Norton-Wisla, from Presque Isle, has volunteered at the Irma
Stein Memorial Library for years. Lotus plans to attend Nicolet
Area Technical College before transferring to UW-Madison where
she plans to complete a degree in Education. She would further
like to attend graduate school in Library and Information
Sciences. |
Rebecca
Fehlandt is from Boulder Junction and plans to attend the
University of Minnesota-Duluth in the fall, majoring in
Marketing. Rebecca has volunteered extensively in her school
and community, and views this scholarship as one more way in
which she will be able to center her efforts around giving back
to others. |
The Bendrick scholarship is administered by
the World Championship Musky Classic, a not-for-profit
corporation, and is funded partially from entry fees,
contributions and magazine revenues. Over the years, many
organizations have donated thousands of dollars to help North
Lakeland area students attend the schools of their choice. For
