P-C Students Win Lions Club Scholarships

Two Plymouth-Canton Community Schools student won scholarships from the Canton Lions Club.

From Canton Lion's Club: The future for two local teens got a little brighter last week, thanks to the Canton Lions Club. The group awarded a $2,000 scholarship to Canton senior Hunter Hall and Salem Senior Riley Stewart last week.

“It was a difficult decision, but I think we chose a couple of outstanding young people,” said club member Ron Sullivan.

Hall, who has raised two leader dogs for the blind, said he planned to attend Michigan State University in the fall in hopes of becoming a doctor one day. Stewart said she plans to attend Schoolcraft College before transferring to a larger university to study architecture and design.
