The SUHI Foundation figured prominently in the scholarship awards ceremony held at the community center at Kimball Park. An all star lineup of educators, Sweetwater alumni, parents and students were present. After opening remarks by Principal Roman del Rosario and counselor Armando Melendez, the ceremony got underway. The SUHI Foundation awarded 13 scholarships starting with the Kile Morgan (Sr) Scholarship presented by Kile Morgan, Jr. (Class of 64). Other scholarships awarded:

• Donna Wilcox Morgan Scholarship presented by Kile Morgan, Jr.
• The SUHI Foundation Annual Scholarship presented by John Cherry, Vice President, The SUHI Foundation
• Class of 64 Scholarship presented by Bob Beasley (Class of 64)
• C. Edward Reed Honorary Musician’s Scholarship presented by Richard Ogden (Class of 63) and Christine Ogden (Class of 64)
• Alan Dodson Memorial Athletic Scholarship presented by Josh Dodson, son of Alan Dodson (Class of 68)
• Linda Morasch Scholarship presented by Linda Morasch, Secretary of The SUHI Foundation
• Carmen Terlaje Memorial Scholarships funded by donations from the Class of 1960 and presented by Robert Dominguez (Class of 1960)

The 13 recipients were chosen from 168 applicants and were very deserving of their awards. We hope to continue to add to our list of scholarships each year.
