Chapter CY of the P.E.O. Sisterhood in Marshfield awarded scholarships at its summer picnic this month.
Two $1,600 Mary Hall Scholarships were presented in honor of Mary Hall, the state organizer when Chapter CY was formed, to Kaitlin Ketring and Tammy Bieneck.
These scholarships, for non-traditional female students who have experienced an interruption in their education, were augmented by monies donated on behalf of two CY sisters who have passed in the last year, Kristi Huebschen and Patti Chronquist.
Additionally, a member of Chapter CY, Dori Knoff, was awarded a $1000 grant through the P.E.O. International Program for Continuing Education.
Monies raised for these gifts come from apple pie sales in the fall, a major plant sale in the spring, and the P.E.O. Holiday Boutique in November.
