Garst Museum Announces Dr. Harry Thomas Scholarship Recipients
The Garst Museum and the Darke County Historical Society are pleased to
announce the recipients of the H.G Thomas Medical Scholarships for the
2020-2021 academic year. Awarded were four past Versailles High School
graduates: Maggie Hedrick, Jadyn Mangen, Rachel (Shellhaas) Jamison,
and Jenna Frantz.
The H. G. Thomas Medical Scholarship program, administered by the Darke
County Historical Society, was established and funded in 1971 by Lowell
Thomas and his sister Pherbia Thomas Thornburg in memory of their
father Dr. Harry G. Thomas. The scholarship program was later increased
by a bequest from Lowell Thomas’s estate, and the fund's interest also
supplements the endowment.
To be eligible for this scholarship, applicants must graduate from a
Darke County high school and must have been accepted into an accredited
medical school. Students may be considered for scholarship awards for
each of their first four years of medical school. Further
information is available by contacting Garst Museum.
