Lancaster
Kennel Club Awards Scholarships
Two Harcum College students were each awarded a $500.00 scholarship for their
hard work, determination and dedication to veterinary technology. The recipients
are Jyl H. Snyder from Lancaster, PA and Sarah M. Lukes from Chadds Ford, PA.
The veterinary scholarship of $2,000.00 was awarded to Lauren Aldinger who will
be graduating from University of Pennsylvania in May 2012. Lauren has been
active with the PVMA serving as a Student Representative as well as a Student
Trustee.
The Lancaster Kennel Club sponsors dog shows, agility trials, and other dog
events throughout the year so we can offer these scholarships. Over the years,
the Lancaster Kennel Club has awarded over $90,000.00 to veterinary and vet tech
students. Next year the veterinary scholarship will be increased to $3,500.00
for a University of Pennsylvania veterinary student. Two veterinary technician
scholarships will be each $1,000.00. The vet tech must be a registered student
at one of the following colleges: Wilson College, Harcum College, Manor College,
Lehigh Carbon & Northampton Community College, or Johnson College. Applications
will be sent to these schools in January, 2012.
Congratulations to all three
recipients!
