Three Iowa high school seniors who have actively participated in the Iowa State Fair were awarded the Governor Terry E. Branstad Iowa State Fair Scholarship on Saturday at the fairgrounds. According to a news release, the recipients were chosen based on participation in the fair, extracurricular activities, volunteer service, GPA and a personal essay explaining the fair’s impact on their lives. This year’s awardees are Ellyse Holubar of Solon High School, Hanna Bedwell of I-35 High School and Brelynn Randall of Louisa-Muscatine High School. Each student will receive a $2,000 scholarship to apply toward their education at an Iowa college or university.
