In 2024, HGAC was proud to present three Adams County students with its first Bonnie Braun Investing in Youth Initiative Award. This award honors HGAC’s late vice president Bonnie Braun who was instrumental in creating HGAC’s Investing in Youth program five years ago.
The three recipients are:
--Zachary Sentz and Jonah Fleck, both graduated from the Technology Education program at the Gettysburg Area High School and both planned to attend Millersville University to pursue studies in Manufacturing Engineering Technology and Workplace Safety. During the past two school years, both students have been responsible for the manufacture of 26 of the 33 Civil War hospital signs manufactured for HGAC.
-- Miles Carignan, a graduating Building Trades II/senior student at the Adams County Technical Institute in 2024, planned to attend Pennsylvania College of Technology to pursue a four-year degree in Civil Engineering.
