NISSWA — The Nisswa Women’s Club awarded four $1,500 scholarships to local students this spring.
The four recipients are Grace Aadland, a Brainerd High School graduate who will attend St. Olaf College in Northfield as a part of the pre-med program; Jessica Fabian, a Pequot Lakes High School graduate who will attend Lake Superior College for a dental hygiene program; Nick Moore, a graduating senior of Brainerd High School who plans to study civil engineering at the University of Minnesota; and Avery Mulholland, who is graduating from Central Lakes College with an honors Associate of Arts degree and will pursue a civil engineering degree from the University of St. Thomas.
The club was still able to offer the scholarships as a part of its annual high school scholarship program, despite the changes in fundraising due to the interference of COVID-19 with its annual fashion show fundraiser.
