McKane Scholarship

The Great Hill United Methodist Church Board of Trustees has announced

that applications are now available for the McKane Scholarship for 2025.

The scholarship has been given annually since 1968 and is in memory of

Peter Hall McKane who died tragically at the age of 18 in an automobile accident and his brother, Paul Archer McKane, who died in 2003 from cancer.

church members. This year a scholarship award of $1,000 will be given to

a graduating high school student from Seymour or Oxford, who has been

accepted and plans to attend a college, university or other institute of higher

learning. Selection criteria includes financial need, personal effort,

individual goals reflecting a degree of determination, and academic

achievement.
