2024 Lake County Scholarship Recipients

The Lake County Farm Bureau Board of Trustees would like to honor their 2024 scholarship recipients: Anya Demshar and Paige Lucic.

Anya receives $1,000 and is attending Wilmington College, as a junior, majoring in agriculture with a focus in animal science with minors in pre-vet, biology and chemistry. Anya is working toward her goal of being a veterinarian and has begun the process of applying for veterinary school.

Paige, a $750 scholarship recipient, is attending the University of Findlay majoring in exercise science for health professionals and minoring in strength and conditioning and is working on a graduate program to earn a doctorate in physical therapy. Paige is interested in teaching others about the importance of agriculture and hopes to be an advisor in 4-H. 

Congratulations Anya and Paige!

Best of luck in your future endeavors!

My first recommendation in your journey is to start out with a local farming friend or mentor along with joining an organization like Ohio Farm Bureau.

We’re just so thankful for the Farm Bureau and the foundation for helping put this together. And of course, the Boyert family for the vision they had with this grant. It’s jumping us forward 10 years. It’s unbelievable.

Bringing the farm back to life
It wasn’t until I joined the Wilmington College Collegiate Farm Bureau that I truly saw how my passion could translate into leadership, advocacy and a career.

The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

Giving farmers a voice
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
