This years winners of the Leighton & Betty Brown Conservation Scholarships are Brendan Sullivan, Emma VandenBroek and Carley Wilson on earning the award.
Brendan is a recent Holy Trinity Catholic High School Graduate and is attending post-secondary at the University of Guelph. Emma and Carley, graduates of East Elgin Secondary School, are pursuing their undergraduate degrees at the University of Guelph and Trent University respectively.
Chair of the Lee Brown Marsh Management Committee Tom Haskett says they planned on awarding two scholarships in 2021 but opted instead to award three due to the quality of the applicants.
"The caliber of those who applied for the scholarship this year was outstanding. Our three winners this year are driven local students who have a clear passion for the environment and sustainability initiatives. The Lee Brown Marsh Management Committee is proud to play a part in supporting the education of those who are sure to shape the future of our environment. We wish Brendan, Emma and Carley the very best in their studies."
