The Coastal Pines Technical College (CPTC) Foundation received a donation on February 29, 2024, to establish a new memorial scholarship.
The "Be like Blue" Scholarship was established with funds raised to memorialize the life of Bobby Blue Smith. Blue was a Ware County Firefighter who tragically passed away while protecting our community in June 2023. The memorial scholarship honors his dedication and commitment to service.
Coastal Pines Technical College students must apply through the CPTC Foundation Scholarship application which will open from March 11, 2024, through April 16, 2024. To qualify, the student should have a minimum of a 2.5 GPA and be a resident of Ware or Pierce County. For more information, visit www.coastalpines.edu.
