The Grant County Copper CowBelles are pleased to announce they have awarded a Trade School program scholarship to Walter Woodward.
Walter is a lifelong resident of Grant County, NM, and the grandson of local CowBelle member Joan Woodward. He will be attending the Southeast Lineman Training Center (SLTC) to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge for this critical profession. He plans to return to Grant County to work as a lineman, bridging the gap in our community and ensuring the continued prosperity of our agricultural sector.
Walter had this to say on his scholarship application, "My grandmother, who was a proud member of the Copper CowBelles for many years until her passing, instilled in me the values of service, dedication, and community involvement. Her legacy continues to inspire me to pursue opportunities to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those around me."
The Copper CowBelles wish Walter much success on his vocational journey.
CowBelles is a non-profit organization whose purpose is providing educational information about the beef industry and preserving the heritage of the West. We offer these scholarships to encourage the continuation of our western heritage in all areas of agriculture and rural life.
