President Craig Kendall Each year, the Jerome Nerman Scholarship Fund awards $2,500 scholarships to 10 deserving Vice President Rick Clark young people to help them continue their Treasurer John Cosgrove educations. As education costs rise, $2,500 can really help students and their families. Secretary Amanda Kent This year we had 100 Jerome Nerman Scholarship applications! This is awesome! Normally, we receive about 40 scholarship applications. The great response this year was due to the hard work President Emeritus Marty Crawford of the Scholarship Committee, which I’ve been privileged to head. Other members include: ■ Al Hess COMMITTEE CHAIRPERSONS: ■ Brandon Hess ■ Ken Kosic Convention Co-Chairs Rick Clark, Announcing earlier and more often that the UTA Scholarships were available also helped drive Hal Dickson and Craig Kendall the year’s great showing. UTA members spread the word to people in their companies and to their friends. Thank you to the UTA Marketing Committee, Misty Reis, and Laura Carter for Dealer Group Bobby Williams helping spread the word about these Scholarships. Co-Chairs Mike Roney and Brandon Hess We had a great Kansas City Reception and Golf Tournament in June to raise money for the Scholarship Fund. We had 22 foursomes competing, and we also had a good turnout for the Elections Charles Cathey reception the night before the tournament.
