Each year the Washington County Corn & Soybean Growers Association recognizes an area senior who is going to pursue a college degree to enhance the corn industry, however this year the organization did not. Instead, the association recognized four area seniors with $500 scholarships. Those who were awarded the scholarships include Tanner Knupp from Washington High School and three seniors from Mid-Prairie – Spencer Shalla, Riley Sieren and Mason Wiles.
