2006 Scholarship Award Ceremony

Samuel Rykken

"I don't think a simple thank you is going to express how grateful I am to receive this award. This scholarship could not have come at a better time while I trying to finance my remaining year of school. I could not be more grateful and honored to accept this scholarship, thank you."

2008 Scholarship Award Ceremony

Garrett Childress
2016 - 2017

"I'd like to thank you for the tremendous opportunity you allowed me this summer in becoming a part of the Advanced American family. Thank you for giving me a first-hand experience in the construction field, which was an industry I knew very little about before my internship. From bidding & estimating a job, to executing a project on-site with the crew, I learned a ton through this internship that could never be taught to me in a lecture hall. Between the scholarships over the past couple of years and this summer internship, I'd like to thank you and the rest of the Advanced American family for investing in my future and continuing education at OSU."

2016 Scholarship Award Ceremony

Devin Wyckoff

"I cannot express how much this scholarship has done for me over the past 4 years. Thanks to this scholarship, I have been able to continue my education at Oregon State University and expand my knowledge and gain many opportunities to progress my future."

2017 Scholarship Award Ceremony

Tasha Petermann
2012 - 2015

"The message of the Schweiger Memorial Scholarship helps keep me motivated to do my best in school and reminds me that perseverance and keeping a positive attitude is what I need to focus on to achieve my career goals. Forrest and his father, Konrad Schweiger is one of the many reasons why I want to be involved in a construction-related field of work. To be able to work with amazing people like them while helping my community is my dream career and hopefully I will be in a position to someday help others who are pursuing the same dream."
