Alex Van Ess of Cedar Grove and Jonathan Brendemuehl of Two Rivers recently were awarded scholarships for successfully completing the Tractor Safety for Youth course at Lakeshore Technical College.
The scholarships were funded by the Lakeshore Two Cylinder Club and presented to the two students at the club's annual picnic and appreciation night. This is the third year the club has provided these scholarships to emphasize the importance of safety to young tractor operators.
The 24-hour Tractor Safety for Youth course is required by law for tractor operators ages 12 to 16. The course has been taught each spring by LTC Farm Business and Production Management instructor Jason Fischer.
