Haunted Barn Funding Scholarships
Adrian- The Haunted Barn was established last year for two reasons: to provide a major fall activitiy for area residents and:to raise money for a new scholarship fund. To get the project rolling they recieved a grant from the local United Way.
the Haunted Barn is meeting both goals. Having attracted approximately 1,000 people last year, Adrian community service officials are calling it the citys largest single seasonal event. More importantly, however, it is a mrjor fund raiser for the city's scholarship fund which assists in defering up to $24 worth of city event fees for needy youth. This past summer appromimatly a dozen children benefited from the fund for such things as swim lessons and pool passes. The problem with the scholarship fund is that not enough people are taking advantage of it said community services programmer Dan Rodgerson.
We still have $5000,00 in there from last year he said. I thought it would be gine the first year but this was not the case. City Officials who limited advertising for the program last year fearing it would be depleated right away are hoping more children will take advantage of it this year as the fund continues to grow. Refers for those who may qualify can be made by any Lenawee County School to the office of State and Federal Programs at the Adrian Public schools. For more informaiton contact Dan Rodgerson at Community Services by calling 263-2161.
