2008 "Dixon Chamber of Commerce"
Scholarship Recipients Are Announced!
I would like to start off by saying that our scholarship selection committee was honored to have so many qualified and worthy scholarship applicants this year. This year’s selections did not come easy.
Our first recipient Mr. Jose Manuel Robles, is not only an active student in Dixon high school but an active, giving Dixon citizen. He has given back to his community in so many ways. Being involved in programs like the Dixon high blood source drive, higher knowledge program that teaches illiterate people to read as well as being a mentor to kids in the Tremont Elementary after school program, just to name a few. He would like to follow in the traditions of not only his family business, but to continue on what has been the foundation of the Dixon community for over 100 years. This young man has been accepted and planning to attend U.C. Davis this coming fall, majoring in agriculture.
Our second recipient miss Meagan Mier-Garcia, has been selected for many different reasons. She has held high honors and a solid overall academic GPA of 4.0, she received the Soroptomist Young Woman of the Month in October of 2007, attended the national youth council and will be graduating in the top 4% of her class. With business economics and governmental affairs experience already under her belt, she has been accepted to both U.C. Davis and U.C. Santa Barbara and is planning to attend one of these two prestigious universities this fall.
Congratulations to both Jose and Meagan for a job well done!!! A big "thank you" to all of the students that have applied for scholarships this year, the Chamber wishes you great success.
Best Regards,
Ann Marie Meloy
