UCEMC is proud to present Smith County High School senior Katie Ash with a $2,000 scholarship in a special ceremony at SCHS on May 6. Katie won the scholarship with her outstanding 900-word essay about one of the seven cooperative principles, Concern for theCommunity. Each year, UCEMC sponsors an essay contest for high school juniors to compete for scholarships and a spot on the Washington Youth Tour. The WYT visits government offices, museums, and monuments at the nation’s Capitol for a week of fun and learning. Congratulations, Katie! After the ceremony on Friday morning, shown above are L-R: Tammie Key, UCEMC Assistant General Manager; Katie Ash, SCHS senior; and Jasmine Byrnes, UCEMC Administrative Assistant.
