 Kristin Renneker Scholarship Fund
Beautiful, intelligent,
athletic, bright and very outgoing are all words that describe Kristin. She
was an honor student, peer counselor and a two-sport varsity athlete. She
was one of the tri-captains of her varsity basketball team, recipient of
the Thunderbird Award in both sports and was an All-American GMC player each
season she participated in a varsity sport.
In 1992, mid-way through her senior
year, the life of this beautiful, young, enthusiastic 17 year-old girl
came to an end in a most tragic automobile accident.
Today, Kristin’s spirit lives
on through the Kristin Renneker Scholarship Fund. The Fund
awards two $2,000 scholarships each May—benefitting a student
at Lakota East and a student at Lakota West High Schools. The
grant criteria includes: graduating senior female athlete; must have
participated in interscholastic athletics, at least in their senior
year; must show community and/or school involvement; and must exhibit
high academic achievement with a minimum accumulative 3.3.GPA.
