BCAR was proud to recognize three Bronson High School seniors with the Cliffie Bowers Memorial Scholarship during last night’s awards ceremony. BCAR President Elect Liza Graham had the honor of presenting this year’s scholarships to:

🎓 Journey Smith
🎓 Riley Graham
🎓 Maxwell Byler

The Cliffie Bowers Memorial Scholarship was established to celebrate Cliffie’s love for his community, family, and friends while supporting local students as they take the next step toward their future goals. Thanks to the continued generosity of our community and support of BCAR’s annual fundraiser, the scholarship program continues to make a lasting impact for students across Branch County.

To date, BCAR has awarded more than $78,000 in scholarships to 133 deserving students. Congratulations to Journey, Riley, and Maxwell on this well-earned achievement, and best wishes for a bright future ahead!
