Harrison Seaman of Kentville, Nova Scotia, one of the selected winners, quoted, “It is an honour to receive the MJT Herrendorf Family Foundation scholarship. Golf has provided me with many opportunities to develop as a player and a person from focusing on goals to lifelong learning. I have enjoyed the competition of the MJT tournaments over the years. I enjoyed meeting new friends and playing in tournaments with my sister and brother. I am excited to be able to use this scholarship towards my tuition at Acadia University as I begin my studies in community development next fall. I would like to thank the MJT selection committee and the Herrendorf Family Foundation for selecting me as a recipient of this award.”
“What an amazing group of applicants were sent our way,” stated Marcus Rambold-Cohen from the Herrendorf Family Foundation selection committee. “We’d like to wish success and good luck to the ten players that we have chosen.”
