United Bank hosted the Annual Academic Awards Breakfast at the Bucyrus Community Hospital on May 12. Each year the breakfast is held to honor seniors from each of the county high schools. They are chosen by their administration according to their academic records, extracurricular activities, and their overall achievements. Featured guest speaker, Gary Frankhouse, Jr., Crawford County’s Economic Development Coordinator, encouraged students to find their “harmonic gate” which challenges them to seek finding their passion in life. United Bank President, Don Stone, encouraged the scholarship winners to consider Crawford County as a place to reside after college. United Bank gave each recipient a Kindle Fire and gift card.

Congratulations to our 2015 Crawford County Scholarship winners.
