2009 Scholarship Winner
Michelle Logsdon
With a 4.01 grade point average, Michelle Logsdon ranks first in her graduating class and will major in Chemistry and Music at St. Olaf College this fall.
The representatives of the WAC Board that were present at her interview were very impressed with Ms Logsdon’s goals for the future and her selection of St. Olaf College. Her past activities in high school and in the community support the WAC desire to have a well rounded student as a scholarship recipient, and the WAC Board feels her academic work in high school supports further successes in college and life. Michele’s parents are Dale and Linda Logsdon of Waseca
Scholarship funds come from revenue earned through our fundraiser, the Sights & Sounds of Christmas Housewalk.
