SALT LAKE CITY Four Utah Catholic high school students will hit the slopes with new ski equipment this season thanks to a unique scholarship. Three have been skiing since they were children and one began the activity last year, but they’re not being rewarded for their athletic prowess. Instead, each has been recognized for the essay he or she wrote about the service they’ve performed.
The Gifting Back…Skiing it Forward Steward Scholarship is the brainchild of Beau Parent, a ski enthusiast and Catholic school parent who wanted to acknowledge the service that many high schoolers provide to their community.
