OTTAWA — The sons of two Eastern Ontario farm families picked up $1,000 scholarships from the Kemptville College Alumni Association earlier this year.
Dylan Wallace of Kemptville and Arden McWilliams of Navan were selected from a group of eight applicants for the scholarship. Two are awarded annually.
Wallace, who recently completed the two-year Business Agriculture program at the Perth campus of Algonquin College, hopes to take over his family’s cash-crop and logging operation.
McWilliams, entering his third year of the Farm Management and Technology program at MacDonald College in Quebec, plans a career as an agronomist while helping on his family’s cash-crop operation. He also enjoys the farm’s Belgian draft horses.
