Megan is currently completing her degree at King’s University taking Economics. She has been involved in many organizations in our community such as: 4H Multi Club, Sizzling Summer, Youth Making a Change, and a Junior Director with the VegrevilleAg Society. Being raised on a farm near Vegreville has taught Megan the rewards of hard work. In her spare time, she loves to sing, do woodwork projects and volunteer for her community. She is an ambitious young lady, and we are proud to present her with the Vegreville Agricultural Society 2022 Scholarship.

Congratulations to both of these amazing young ladies and best wishes in all your future endeavors!
