Submitted by: Kelsey Arnett, L-C FFA Reporter
The Lynchburg-Clay FFA Chapter will be hosting the annual Greg Wilkin Memorial Scholarship Basketball Tournament on December 26 and 27, 2016 at the Lynchburg-Clay High School Gymnasium. The Lynchburg-Clay Young Farmers originally created this tournament for the FFA Chapter to award scholarships to the graduating seniors that meet the guidelines set forth by the Lynchburg-Clay Agriculture Education Department. The Alumni Tournament is held during each Christmas holiday and is the main source of income for the scholarship. Donations are also received from family, friends, and others interested in supporting this worthy cause that honors Greg Wilkin, who was lost in a farming accident. He was a graduate of the Lynchburg-Clay Schools and attended Wilmington College where he was majoring in Agriculture. He was also involved in the family farm operation. Greg had a great love for farming.
