The Centre Lions Club has announced its annual scholarship awards to graduating seniors from Cherokee County’s high schools.
This year s winners are Tiffany Durham, Allison Mulligan and Lindsey Chambers of Sand Rock High School; and Olivia Oliphant, Makenzie Green and Ethan Laney of Cherokee County High School. (No applications were received from Gaylesville, Cedar Bluff and Spring Garden.)
The club has awarded the scholarships for more than 15 years, and this year increased the total amount to $5,000, which will be divided equally among the six recipients.
The total has been $2,500 for most years, with the exception of one year at $3,000 and another at $3,750. Club members noted the increase in college costs in approving the larger amount.
