(l-r): Putnam County Fair Pre-Teen Kylee Stanley, Emma Luikart, Miss Putnam County Fair Queen Taylor Miller, and Putnam County Bank President John Wilson.

Emma Luikart was awarded the Jack Wilson Memorial Scholarship which has been established in memory of Jack Wilson, former President and CEO of Putnam County Bank. Jack was an avid supporter of the Putnam County Fair Livestock Auction for over 30 years. Due to his involvement in the 4-H livestock sales, many young people were able to fund their own college education.

Scholarship applicants must be 4-H or FFA livestock exhibitors who are currently in college or will attend college in the fall and required to submit a one page essay on “What impact has the Putnam County Fair or the Putnam County Livestock Program had on your life?”
