Sevier County 4-H has announced the 7th Annual Erica Manning 4-H Camp Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Erica was tragically killed in an automobile accident on December 30, 2005 at the age of 21.  Each year, the Sevierville Sunrise Rotary Club, local businesses and several local individuals provide donations for scholarships for individual 4-H members to assist them in attending 4-H Camp.

These scholarships are awarded based on need and 4-H member participation.  In 2011, 33 individual 4-H members received either partial or full scholarships for 4-H Camp.  Contributions to the Erica Manning 4-H Camp Memorial Scholarship Fund are welcomed.

At the time of her death, Erica was a Senior at Carson Newman College in Jefferson City.  As a Sevier County student, Erica was very active in the Sevier County 4-H program while at New Center Elementary and Sevier County High School.
