This year’s adult scholarship recipients are Christina Shaw, Columbus; Kade Roach, Salem; Stacy Workman-Wyatt, Columbus; Priyadharshini Manikandan, Carmel; Tanner Bowman, Nashville; and Tesia Baker, Scottsburg.
Named in honor of Loretta M. Burd, who retired from Centra Credit Union after 47 years of service, the program is designed to help local students pursuing a college or technical school education.
