OH, What a Night!

The sun was shining on April 16 as 15 Pierce County public high school students showed up early for our annual Memorial Scholarship Program and they were ALL winners in our book!

These young people really experienced the maritime industry with a bus tour of the Port of Tacoma and sponsor business tours, some even going on a tugboat or up on a crane! Thanks to the scholarship committee, judges, sponsors, First Student, school counselors, Rod Koon and guests. Special thanks to our 3 Event Sponsors:  Port of Tacoma, Courtyard Marriott Tacoma, and Matson Navigation.

The 2025 recipient of the $4,000 award was Pabel Santos of Bethel High School. A second-place award of $2,000 was presented Jayce Hartman of Silas High School, and third place, with an award of $1500, went to Samiksha Singh of Stadium High School. $200 cash was awarded to each of the other students.

It was so gratifying to listen to these young people, and know our future is in good hands!
