They included Ryan Adamson, of Freedom High School; Celia Christ of East Penn; Anna Edwards and Jadeyn Hagadus, both from Allentown Central Catholic High School; Gabriel Trexler and Emma Carl, both from Emmaus High School; Lila Cygan and Allison Emanuel, both from Parkland High School; Brandon Panuccio, Bethlehem Catholic High School and Quinn Wittman, from Salisbury High School.
Five of the recipients were available to receive the scholarships at the meeting.
The LVECU has provided $230,000 in scholarships since its inception in 2001.
