Rikki Neat and Riley Grant have been named 2013 Rogers Scholars and will be eligible to receive exclusive scholarship opportunities from 18 colleges and universities.

Neat and Grant, students at Adair County High School, were selected by The Center for Rural Development.

Rogers Scholars, an intensive one-week summer youth leadership program, brings together rising high school juniors from across Southern and Eastern Kentucky for a one-of-a-kind experience that past participants often describe as “life changing.”

Rogers Scholars was built on a mission started by U.S. Congressman Harold “Hal” Rogers  that “no young person should have to leave home to find his or her future.”
