Darke County Scholarship Fund
Eagles awards
two scholarships through DCSF
The Greenville Fraternal Order of Eagles No. 2177 awarded two
scholarships through the Darke County Scholarship Fund on July 19,
bringing the total number of scholarship recipients from the Eagles to
14 over the last four years.
Recipients this year are Ashley Mikesell, daughter of Eagles member
Rodney Mikesell, and Ashton Kester, granddaughter of Eagles member R.
Eldon Wolter. In addition to excelling in academics, recipients must be
children, grandchildren or great grandchildren of Eagles Aerie or
Auxiliary members.
Ashley, a 2015 Greenville High School graduate, is attending Wright
State University for a degree in biology. Once she earns her degree she
intends to enroll in Kettering Medical Center’s physician’s assistant
program.
Ashton, a 2016 Greenville High School graduate, will be attending
Findlay University for pre-veterinary science. Upon attaining her
veterinary degree she plans to work with an established veterinarian,
then build her own local practice.
The Eagles awards complete the scholarship year for the Darke County
Scholarship Fund. DCSF awarded 12 scholarships in 2016 and has helped
students with nearly $70,000 since 2009.
