Seven automotive students from Crocus Plains Regional Secondary School ended the week by collecting cheques for $250, which was handed out by members of the Road Rebels and Brandon and Area Car Enthusiasts. 

Due to the disruptive influence of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Friday’s ceremony included grant recipients from the 2019-20 and 2020-21 academic year. They include: 

• Ethan Penman (Collision Repair Technology recipient for the last two years)

• Connor Guymer (Collision Repair Technology recipient) 

• James Blyth (Automotive Technology recipient) 

• Edward Garcia Pineda (Automotive Technology recipient) 

• Oliver Long (Automotive Technology recipient) 

• Nash Granger (Automotive Technology recipient) 

According to Crocus teacher Jeff Kasprick, these students were chosen to receive these grants based on a variety of factors, including their dedication, attendance, attitude and teamwork in the classroom. 

Kasprick told the Sun the grants from the Road Rebels and BACE are usually handed out every year during the school’s spring car show. 

He’s hoping the province’s looser COVID restrictions for kindergarten to Grade 12 schools will allow Crocus staff to resume this tradition later this semester.
