Steel and Matt Shinkwin

Another celebration for the seniors at Central Catholic.  Tonight we attended the Senior Awards night where all of the awards and scholarships are presented to the students.  Steel’s class has 98 students and they have earned almost $4,000,000 in scholarships, awards and grants. (Yes, that’s $4 million dollars.)  Pretty impressive.  Steel received scholarships from the Turlock Pentecost Association and Mo-Cal Office Solutions.  His scholarship from Pacific University was also announced and he was awarded the Intermediate Dance and Choreography Award.

One of the best parts of the night was the presentation of Matt Shinkwin’s official appointment to the United State Military Academy at West Point.  Matt and Steel have spent a lot of time together over the last year or so and we’ve come to love him and his family very much.  We share in their pride.  Matt was also the recipient of the Intermediate Dance and Choreography Award with Steel, no doubt for their collaborative work on the Spring dance production.
