Quinte Waste Solutions is awarding their annual environmental scholarship to two deserving students from Prince Edward Collegiate Institute this year at their Board of Directors meeting Monday.
The two Prince Edward County students, who are going on to further their environmental education in the fall, submitted impressive applications earlier in the year.
The Robert Argue Scholarship Award was founded in honour of Bob Argue, the chief architect behind the creation of the recycling and waste reduction program that currently serves the Centre & South Hastings area, including Prince Edward County. The primary aim of the scholarship is to encourage environmental activism and innovation, and to make possible the participation in an environmental endeavour.
