Letter: Perry backs fund drive

The fifth annual Jonathan R Shively Memorial Scholarship Fund meat and entertainment raffle was held at Perry School on Feb. 20 and was a huge success. We are so grateful to everyone who purchased tickets and donated raffle prizes.

Also a big thank you to Superintendent Omer Schroeder for donating the hog and to those who gave monetary donations; 100 percent of the funds from this raffle are being used for college scholarships for qualified Perry seniors which was one of our son’s passions. The support of the corporate and private sector helped to make this a success and we hope to see you all next year.
