The Little Sebago Lake Association 2021 Scholarship Awards

To help support our local communities and to encourage lake stewardship, the Board of Directors created a new scholarship in 2015. The goal of this scholarship is to assist graduating high school students who enroll in a college program to pursue a degree in general environmental sciences, water quality or watershed management. Up to two $500 scholarships will be awarded each year, one to a graduating senior from Windham High School and one from Gray-New Gloucester High School. Last spring, we were pleased to award the seventh annual (2021) scholarship to two most deserving students. The scholarship winner from Windham High School was Nicole Snow, a student who has a passion for the environment and plans on working with marine life. She is an accomplished leader who was involved on the tennis team, student council and officer’s class representative. Also recognized as a scholar, she had a 101.58 GPA, and a member of the National Honor Society, and the Spanish Honor Society. This fall she is attending the Maine Maritime Academy to study Marine Biology. The recipient of the Gray-New Gloucester High School scholarship was Nicole Cobb who is attending the University of Maine at Orono to study Environmental Science. Following her passion for the outdoors, Nicole was active in the school’s environmental club, Green Tree Society. As a leader, Nicole was captain of her softball, soccer, and volleyball teams, a member of the Community Service Club, and Class Treasurer. Nicole is a recognized scholar, with a Full IB diploma candidate, and a member of the National Honor Society. We are proud to help support these hard-working students as they pursue their education and careers. 2021 RAFFLE WINNERS
