Byron Kiwanis scholarships available

The Byron Kiwanis is offering two scholarships again this year. The Student Service Scholarship was established in 1999 for outstanding service to school and community. This scholarship for post-secondary study recognizes outstanding high school students who have been actively involved in community service in the Byron or Meridian school districts.

The Rachel Jonakin Memorial Scholarship was established by the Kiwanis Club of Byron in 1994 to honor the memory of Key Club member Rachel Jonakin who was killed in an automobile accident during her freshman year. An active member of Key Club, Rachel participated in many community activities. This scholarship honors her memory by providing funds for post-secondary study for a Byron Key Club member.
