This fund was created by Beverly Lawson’s son, George Lawson, in loving memory of his mother’s athleticism and joyful discovery of golf later in life. She was a member of the Pala Mesa Women’s Golf Club, an avid player, and a firm believer that golf builds character and self-confidence. Scholarships support young women golfers participating in their local high school programs and/or school-organized athletics in general.

Created by daughter Pam and son-in-law, Darrell Chodola, this fund is now available to help graduating students of Fallbrook, Bonsall or Mission Vista High Schools. It seems fitting for a person who had giving back and promoting athleticism often on his mind that the Duke Snider Scholarship Fund will help students who are intent upon a higher education with an extra measure of financial support to reach their goals. Throughout his life, Duke was always “giving back” to help others, but it was in the last season of his life that he became a great supporter of Fallbrook baseball and all athletics in the area in general. High school games, tournaments, fundraisers, event committee planning, 1:1 coaching sessions, all become important avenues for Duke to generously share his time, wisdom, and experience. Even today, long after his passing in 2011, fond stories continue to be told about things he did on his own, so often under-the-radar, to help young athletes whether it was taking carloads of kids to big games, going off on wonderful and unexpected excursions, or hosting birthday and student bowling parties at Duke Snider Lanes. He lent his gravitas, voice, gentlemanly ways, celebrity, and code of conduct to others, helping shape the future for others who would come after him.

Michael Pancner Memorial Scholarship Fund was created by Mary and Les Pancner in memory and honor of their son who was attending Humboldt State University at the time of his passing. This scholarship honors those students graduating from Valley Center (Valley Center) or La Costa Canyon (Carlsbad) high schools and attending Humboldt State University.

The Ridgecrest Family Endowment Fund was created by Laurenn Barker and her brother, Sandy Prater as an incentive to encourage youth to stay on a positive path through high school toward college. The Ridgecrest Family Endowment Fund developed the “Rising Star Award” that recognizes those outstanding North County Boys and Girls Club youth that excel in being positive role models by their exceptional community service, academic improvement, peer mentoring and leadership abilities. Any award monies are kept in a savings account in the award winner’s name until they are enrolled in a college where the funds will be dispensed in their account.

The Roberta Collister Scholarship Trust. A widow, having no children of her own, Roberta Collister set up a trust for the purpose of providing scholarships for the pursuit of higher or advanced education for deserving students who graduate from the Fallbrook Union High School. The scholarship committee awards scholarships according to scholastic excellence, financial need, extra-curricular and community activities, educational objectives, and preferably at least one grant per year will go to a disabled student. Roberta Collister was a long-time Fallbrook resident, avid car enthusiast and a generous and dedicated supporter of higher education.

The E. Wright and Jessie T. Yount Scholarship assist’s graduates of the Fallbrook Union High School. The committee makes the awards to those individuals who not only shine academically but want to pursue a career in Medicine & Health, Computer Science, or Environmental Studies.

Juanita and her husband Earl owned "The Westerner" store on Main Street for more than 30 years, and although very much a thing of the past, most Fallbrook High School students used to purchase their required P.E. clothes from this store each year. While the store is gone, and Juanita and Earl have passed, the passion for helping local kids outlives them. Juanita Walden's scholarship is for Fallbrook High School graduates, given every other year to a student who plans to attend a California college or university and is a recurring scholarship for four consecutive years.

The Richard and Mary Jane Weeks Scholarship Fund supports young men and women wishing to obtain engineering degrees through enrollment in a four-year college. Longtime Fallbrook residents, Richard and Mary Jane chose to support outstanding, well-prepared students who are eager to enter a difficult field; one completely understood by Richard Weeks, who was a nationally known petroleum engineer.
