This year was the first year Gold-Eagle Coop has offered scholarships to graduating seniors pursuing higher education. The scholarship committee enjoyed reading through the 11 applications submitted from many of the area schools and selecting two deserving candidates for a scholarship of $500 each. The committee consisted of Chris Staudt, Jim Glawe, Elizabeth McOllough, Kyle Greiman, and Boone Morgan. Congratulations to Maggie Vaske of Bancroft and Ethan Traub of Clarion for being Gold-Eagle’s inaugural scholarship winners. Both students visited the Goldfield location for a photo op and joined the scholarship committee for lunch. Maggie plans to attend Buena Vista University to pursue an accounting degree and Ethan plans to attend Iowa Central Community College to pursue turf grass management.
