I think it's a legitimate concern (to elect someone who may not be qualified). At least when I was first elected, there were some things from an accounting standpoint that I needed to take some classes on after being elected.

I guess I kind of expected that would be the result. There's a history in Wisconsin Rapids of electing these positions and that's apparently the way they are going to stay, which is fine by me.

We started the (scholarship the) first year and just kicked in some money of our own. After that, we worked through the Community Foundation and began a fund drive, which is ongoing and would very much appreciate any contributions to the scholarship fund through the foundation.
