LSLA $500.00 SCHOLARSHIPS

My name is Liamand I spendmost of my available time in or near lakes and mountains, my appreciation for the natural world has done nothing but grow over the years. With the impending changes to our climate and ecosystems across the world, it is my goal to complete the degree I am currently pursuing in Earth and Climate Sciences at the University of Maine so that I can understand the problems and help make positive change to preserve the planet we love. A huge thank you to the Little Sebago Lake Association for helping fund the education of students like me in the natural science fields. I think we are at a time where this is critically important for preserving the way of life that we love here in Maine, so thank you on my behalf and everyone who enjoys Maine’s beauty -Liam Flynn Liam Flynn

Ben Rogers My name is Ben Rogers and I would like to thank the Board of Directors of the Little Sebago Lake Association for awarding the 2016 college scholarship to me. I am currently a freshman at Southern Maine Community College and am majoring in Horticulture. In this program I will learn about plant production and organic food production. I am very interested in the role organic gardening is playing in Maine and think it is great way to connect people to the earth. After completing the Horticulture program I plan to continue my education in Sustainable Agriculture. This path will help me pursue a career in sustainable plant systems which will help provide safe food and protect the earth that provides it. -Ben Rogers Liam Flynn, $500 Windham Scholarship Recipient
