First Scholarships Given!

We are pleased to announce the recipients of our first scholarships!  We are awarding a $1000 scholarship each to Benjamin Peterson of Northridge High School and Colton Keddington of Bountiful High School.  Through your efforts and participation in our golf tournament last year, we are able to provide these scholarships.  We’d like to tell you a little about each of our recipients. 

Ben

Ben & Austin

Ben Peterson will be attending Weber State University in the Fall, studying physical therapy.  He played on the Northridge High School Basketball and Football teams and served as a team captain of both teams.  He received Academic All Region in Basketball and Second Team All Region in Football.  Ben wrote an essay about what the Power of One means to him and shared the story of Austin who is one of his autistic friends at Northridge High School.  Austin dreamed of playing basketball for Northridge High School.  Austin was quoted saying to his dad, “Dad, when my brain grows strong, can I play basketball at Northridge?”  After hearing Austin’s comment, Ben thought of many ways he could help Austin realize his dream.  Ben arranged for the seniors on the basketball team take a picture and sign it for Austin and gave him an old Northridge Basketball Jersey.  Ben felt like there was more that needed to be done.  Ben arranged with his coach for Austin to dress in the Northridge High Basketball pre-season scrimmage game.  He even was able to check into the game and his teammates made a consistent effort to give him the ball and gave him room to shoot.  “Austin clearly had a mental disability but was given the chance to fulfill his dream to play basketball for Northridge High.”  The game was tied when the coach made an announcement to the fans at the game that if Austin made a foul shot, his team would win.  Austin went to shoot the ball underhanded or “granny style”.  After banking if off the backboard, the ball fell through the net.  Both teams rushed to Austin and put him on their shoulders and the student body stormed the court.  Through Ben’s everyday efforts, he definitely understands and exemplifies the Power of One.  As we reviewed the applicants from Northridge High School, we felt that Ben was making an impact in the same way that Steve made an impact on others each day.  Congratulations Ben!

Colton

Colton Keddington will be attending BYU in the Fall – Steve would say the “team down South” and as hard as it is to admit that we are giving a scholarship to a Cougar, we know that this will please one of Steve’s mentors and friends, Coach Phil Olsen!  Colton will be studying Political Science and would like to pursue a career in international relations with the U.S. Government.  He was on the Bountiful High School tennis team, a member of the Concert Choir, Phoenix Choir, A’Capella Choir, Chamber Choir and performed in Bountiful High School musicals.  He was captain of the Bountiful High Tennis and the Chamber Choir President.  Colton’s essay not only exemplified the Power of One but also Steve’s love of history.  Colton wrote about 37 young men who enlisted in 1944 and were assigned to be part of the D-Day storming of Normandy.  Their particular platoon was sent to Omaha Beach.  Five were killed before they hit the shore, 19 were lost in the first fifteen minutes of landing, seven died later in battle, five never went in and only six of the original 37 returned home.  Colton wrote, “I believe that it was the individual courage of each of those young men – all the planning, numbers and strategy wouldn’t have allowed this operation to succeed without the individual courage of every one of these soldiers.”  Colton thought of these men when he heard the quote “never underestimate the power of one”.  He stated that these 37 were all leaders in individual ways.  Colton has had many leaders who have inspired and encouraged him through their example.  He wants to be use his influence as a leader whether in an official role or where he has no authority.  He has a desire to serve others, leading by example and putting his stewardship above himself and his own interests.  He stated he looks forward to the chance to see how far his power of one can go.  Congratulations Colton!

We would like to continue to award scholarships to deserving students who exemplify the Power of One!  In order to do this, we need your support at our Second Annual Golf Tournament scheduled for June 22^nd at Bountiful Ridge Golf Course.  We are still looking for players and sponsors!   We hope you will join us on the 22^nd.

2012 Golf Tournament volunteers!

We are currently looking for dates for our 2012 golf tournament. We would love any input and ideas you each may have.

If you would like to help with our 2012 golf tournament please let us know ASAP.

For your information we will be asking each committee member to commit to the following: finding one sponsor, obtaining one raffle item, and one silent auction item. This is similar to what we asked last year from our committee members. We hope you will want to participate with us in 2012 to make the Steve Hill Scholarship Golf Tournament a success again.

Please let us know if you can help us this year. After we get information from local golf clubs on dates, and prices we will hold a committee member meeting to get things going.

Thanks again for all your love and support we truly appreciate it so much!

Leanne, Shelby, and Stefanie
