Lakeland Power will help local students attending Georgian’s Muskoka Campus by providing two $1,000 scholarships. Lakeland Power distributes electricity to consumers in Bracebridge, Burk’s Falls, Huntsville, Magnetawan and Sundridge.

The awards, to be dispersed in the fall, are open to students at any level of study and in any program who are studying at the Muskoka Campus.

The first scholarship, the Bracebridge Generation Award, is named after Lakeland subsidiary Bracebridge Generation; the second is called the Lakeland Power Award.

In addition to Lakeland’s awards, full-time Georgian students at the Muskoka Campus are also eligible for about 75 individual awards in various categories. These are available to all full-time Georgian students at any of its seven campuses.

Awards and scholarships at Georgian are given out based on financial need, academic excellence and/or proven leadership skills and volunteer work in the community.
