We recently held a concert benefitting the Mike G. Dotson scholarship fund. This fund provides a $500 scholarship to be awarded to a graduating senior from Tyler Consolidated wishing to further his or her education in athletic training, coaching, sports medicine, physical education, or a related field.

Not only would we like to thank those who attended the concert but those who gave anonymously. We also would like to thank the following for their donations of time, money, goods, air time for announcements, and publication space for announcements:
