LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Participation in Kelseyville's Junior Giants program also includes the opportunity to apply for the Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship.

Each year, the Giants Community Fund inducts 10 new Junior Giants into the Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship Program.

All Junior Giants entering eighth grade are invited to apply for a $10,000 scholarship. The Harmon and Sue Burns Scholars are honored at a home-plate ceremony at Oracle Park on Education Day.

Special thanks to the Burns Family Foundation who generously underwrites the cost of the Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship Program each year and to Franklin Templeton Investments for their donation to support the Road to College Workshop and Education Day.

The Kelseyville League has been well represented in this education focused extension of the Junior Giants Program. Winners from the Kelseyville League include:

• 2014: Jacob Lopez.
• 2015: Paige Bour.
• 2020: Adam Astrup.
• 2023: Gordon Astrup.

Parents of elementary and middle school students are encouraged to check out the details of the Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship here.

Recruitment of volunteers and players will begin this spring. Watch for announcements on lakecountysal.com and the Lake County Sheriff's Activities League Facebook page.
