John Tricoche receives Aim-At-Ag scholarship from ArborOne

Posted
ArborOne Farm Credit awarded one of two Aim-At-Ag Scholarships to Manning High School Valedictorian John Tricoche on May 30 at she school’s annual Awards Ceremony.  The $750 scholarship is awarded to two high school seniors planning to attend a two- or four-year institution and major in an agriculture-related field. Tricoche will be attending Clemson University in the fall and plans to major in agriculture education.  In his application’s essay, John focuses on the change FFA made in his outlook and appreciation of the country and agriculture. “I believe in the future of agriculture,” that is the first line of the creed of the FFA.  John Tricoche is going to be one that helps lead the way.
