About the Scholarship Funds:
Justin Linde Scholarship Fund
Justin Linde (1989-2022) passed away the summer of 2022 after a valiant 4.5 year fight with cancer. Justin was an amazing human with love for the outdoors. His positive attitude was infectious to all and his passion for the outdoors radiated from him. Justin’s career choice was to work in the ski industry, and he took each day as an opportunity to learn. Upon his passing, a scholarship was set up to help an individual in the upper Midwest to attend Gogebic College with financial support each year. This nationally recognized college provides courses for all those interested in pursuing a career, like Justin, in the ski industry. The Ski Area Management Program at GCC is one of the nation’s most comprehensive training programs for individuals interested in pursuing a career in the snow sport industry. Technical and academic study is combined with a practical internship which is conducted at major resorts throughout Coast to Coast. Justin attended Gogebic College, but wasn’t able to finish his schooling.
GDS Memorial Scholarship Fund
George David Solner (1957-2010) was a very passionate designer, loving father, brother, son and friend to many. In honor of all George’s accomplishments, and to carry on his loving spirit, a scholarship fund was established in 2010 to encourage and support high school graduates who desire to continue to pursue George’s passion for art and architecture. The GDS Memorial Scholarship is presented on a yearly basis to an individual graduating from George’s allamanda “Middleton High School” that demonstrates the same passions as George. We all miss him dearly but will never forget his kindness and values he carried.
