GREEN BAY, Wis. -- We are pleased to announce the winners of the 2010 Pomp’s Tire Scholarships.
“The winners of these scholarships represent dependents of Pomp’s Tire employee’s current year high school graduates or students who are presently enrolled in college. We had a great scholarship applicant pool this year, especially for this being the first year the scholarship was offered,” says Greater Green Bay Community Foundation Scholarship Administrator Cathie Day. “All of the applicants had excellent credentials and were very impressive; we simply are unable to provide assistance to all of the students who apply.”
The following are this year’s scholars, their intended colleges, and their field of study:
Jacob Krause, son of Pomp’s employee Andy Krause and his wife Michelle, Waukesha, WI. Jacob will be attending Carnegie Mellon University pursuing a career in a Biology related field. Dylan McCorkle, son of Pomp’s employee Chris McCorkle and his wife Lynn, of Crandon, WI. Dylan will be attending UW-Madison pursuing a career in Business Administration.
