The Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative has recently awarded $2,000 scholarships to four Wisconsin students.
Rachel Abel, Fond du Lac; Thayne Bjelland, Gillett; Lauren Breunig, Sauk City; and Amber Fietzer, Manawa were among this year's recipients.
This is the ninth year Edge offered the scholarship program to help finance higher education for the children of its members. Students competing for the scholarships were judged on academic achievement, leadership and participation in school and community activities, academic honors, goals and aspirations, recommendations and work experience.
Edge Dairy Co-op is a bargaining cooperative that verifies milk components and represents dairy producers on legislative issues.
