Tuesday, March 27, the Kiwanis club honored their 2025 scholarship recipients. Chairman of the Scholarship Committee Lamar Tarver introduced the recipients to the club. 

These students were all outstanding in their high school years with their grades and their activities. Those graduating seniors were Emily Nevils (daughter of Kim and Chris Nevils), Addison Griffin (daughter of Lyndsey and Wayne Griffin), and Mason Green (son of Michael and Mary Green). 

Emily is planning to attend the University of Virginia at Charlottesville, Va., pursuing a degree in public policy and history. She may go into consulting or become an attorney. 

Addison Griffin will attend University of Louisiana at Lafayette to pursue a degree in nursing. After becoming an RN and working two years she wants to attend a nurse anesthetist program. 

Mason Green will attend Louisiana Tech in forestry to obtain a degree in forest management.  All three of these young people received a $1000 check and a certificate. The Kiwanis club raises money for these scholarships with our Boston Butt scholarship lunch held each year in April.  “We appreciate the support of the community in helping us to give this money to deserving students,” Tarver said.
