The local chapter of the Vietnam Veterans of America last week awarded three high school students scholarships to further their academic careers. The students were chosen from Dawson County High School and Lumpkin County High School, and were judged by the contents of their applications as well as extracurricular activities. Each student received a $1,000 scholarship funded by money raised by the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 970.
