Emily Moore has been chosen as the 2024 recipient of the $2,200 "Banana George" Blair Ambassador Scholarship. Emily is from Bastrop, Texas, and is a Junior at Texas State University majoring in Animal Science/Pre-Veterinarian.
"This scholarship is an incredible opportunity for me as it will assist in taking my education to the next level. This scholarship will aid in my ambitions to attend veterinary school and further my goals of working with the University on research projects," says Emily.
The USA Water Ski & Wake Sports Foundation scholarships are awarded each year to water skiers who show leadership abilities and demonstrate that involvement in the sport has helped them grow both personally and academically.
In the same spirit that made him a legend, "Banana George" Blair continued to give back to water sports and the foundation throughout his life. George's family has created this scholarship to give student-athletes an opportunity to earn a college education while pursuing their water sports dreams. This scholarship is open to all water sports disciplines.
