Posted Jun 29, 2022 10:08 AM

Junction City Community Band established a scholarship fund in 1998 in memory of Jack Moore, a percussionist and former member of the band. The scholarship pays most of the cost of sending student members of the band to a summer band camp. 

This year they have announced two scholarship recipients: Mariah Wyche, tenor saxophone, Junction City and Favian Gomez, trumpet, Manhattan. They will be attending the High Plains Music Camp at Fort Hays State University in July.

Over the years the community band has awarded scholarships to 28 students.
