FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 29, 2022

WHEATLAND (IOWA) Megan Clark, a senior at Central DeWitt High School from rural Grand Mound, has been named this year’s local F&B Communications $500 scholarship winner.

Clark plans to attend Iowa State University to major in agricultural communications.

In her application essay, she wrote of her vast experiences in communications including public speaking, digital media and print journalism at the local and national levels. She has used her passion for communications to show people of all ages the importance of agriculture and address misconceptions about the ag industry.

High school seniors who live in households in the F&B local telephone service area were eligible for the award. Students submitted an application form and essay. Three finalists were selected for interviews.

A primary goal of the scholarship is to ensure that children have the privilege of attending college and encourage young people to return to rural areas after graduation.

The local F&B scholarship program was started in 2003 because the Board of Directors and employees of F&B are committed to the education of local youth and believe learning is a lifelong process.

Megan’s parents are Bill and Ange Clark.

F&B Communications is the premiere local telecommunications provider offering telephone, long distance, Skitter TV video, high-speed fiber and DSL Internet, and home security services to customers in the Bennett, Calamus, Delmar, Lowden and Wheatland exchanges and surrounding areas.
