Local students get $10,000 in educational awards from Lakeland

As a result of their academic prowess and hard work, Lakeland Networks and Lakeland Generation have offered five students from the Muskoka/Parry Sound/Almaguin school districts Lakeland Networks Bursary Awards and the B. Ingram Excellence Award.

Lakeland encourages young people to attend post-secondary education upon graduation and to bring the skills they have learned back to their community. In support of this, Lakeland Networks provides 4 – $1500 bursaries each year to assist graduating high school students in pursuing post-secondary education.

With the introduction of the B. Ingram Excellence Award in honour & memory of Lakeland’s Manager of Operations, Bryan Ingram (1978-2024), Lakeland aims to continue his legacy by supporting the next generation of young professionals and leaders within our local communities.
 
Lakeland offers this financial assistance as a testament of support to the academic success and future careers of the following exceptional young minds. The Lakeland Bursary Award recipients are as follows:

The Lakeland Generation B., Ingram Excellence Award recipient, is Ethank Aitken.
As of this year, Lakeland Generation created an additional award in remembrance of Lakeland’s Manager of Operations, Bryan Ingram (1978-2024), a father, husband, and friend with a love for hydro generation, his community, and his family. The B. Ingram Excellence Award of $5000 is given to a student who is entering into post-secondary education in Hydro Mechanics, Mechatronics, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (or a similar program) with the goal of pursuing a career in the renewable energy field. This student must demonstrate a keen aptitude for learning and a desire to serve their community.
