Catoctin Athletic Sports Boosters Scholarships
& Buzz Barker Scholarship Fund

Buzz Barker was a life-long resident of the Thurmont community and a dedicated volunteer for thirty-three years to Catoctin High School athletics.  He had a deep love for the students and a true interest in their success beyond high school.  Upon his death, his family, friends in the Thurmont community and the Catoctin Athletic Boosters Club created this scholarship fund to remember & honor his dedication to area youth.  The scholarship fund will award one $1,000 scholarship each year to an outstanding CHS senior who has done well in the classroom, been involved in the athletic program and demonstrated good character and service to the Catoctin community.  Page two of this application will be validated by the CHS Guidance Counselor and Athletic Director and the remaining de-identified pages will be given to Buzz’s family to select the recipient.  The recipient will be selected based upon the merit of this application packet only.
