Scholarship Peter James Gorno Endowment

The Peter James Gorno Memorial Scholarship was established through the generosity of friends and family after his death. Peter attended Caro Community Schools until the eighth grade and Elk Rapids High School for ninth and tenth grade.

This scholarship is awarded annually to students who share interests with Peter. Peter enjoyed playing sports, experiencing nature, working and socializing with his peers as well as adults.

Consideration is given to applicants that fulfill the following criteria:

  • Motivation toward achieving goals 
  • Ability to overcome personal obstacles
  • Demonstrating financial need
  • Involvement in athletics and reaching out to others
  • Grade point average is not the main focus

Two scholarships are awarded annually, one to a graduating senior from Elk Rapids High School and one to a graduating senior from Caro High School.
