Whitehall Veteran Roger Steerman presents Bryn Welker with the Dennis Smith Memorial Scholarship.
2017 Whitehall High School graduate Bryn Welker was recently awarded the $1,000 Whitehall American Legion Post #24 and VFW Post #4603 Dennis Smith Memorial Scholarship.
Post member Roger Steerman surprised Welker with the news of the scholarship on her last day of school in May.
Welker will be attending Montana State University where she will be studying astrophysics.
Steerman said he was impressed with not only the resume of Welker, but also the essay she had to write for the scholarship.
The students who applied for the scholarship had to answer: 1. What is a Veteran? 2. Why do people serve in the armed forces of the U.S.? 3. With the many changing world events; what do you think the role of America will be in the future and what part will the military play?
