CANORA – During the graduation exercises held at King George Park on June 25, some two dozen different scholarships were awarded to 15 students.
A new addition this year, the Ralph Davis scholarship was awarded by his son Mike to Tucker Mydonick. Mike said his father, who used to own the Canora Courier, “always believed in education.” The criteria is that the scholarship goes to a high school graduate entering Sask Polytech.
The Canora Fire & Rescue scholarship was won by Andrew Owchar, presented by firefighter Carrie Baron and fire chief Jess Harper. Harper said, “The Canora Fire Brigade Bursary is given to an active member of the fire department that is attending a post secondary program. The recipient of this year’s bursary joined our department last year, and over that year we have been able to watch him grow as a firefighter. His determination and willingness to learn make us proud to call him one of our own. Congratulations Andrew, we are so proud of you.”
