There were no entries submitted to the NACAA Horticulture Awards Program (Pre-AM Horticulture Tour).
In September 2002 the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service lost one of our Horticulture Agents, Lewis Stillman Howe III, to a heart attack. It was suggested to start a scholarship in Howe's name. This $500 professional improvement scholarship will be given yearly at the NCACAA State meeting. No entry was received.
It has been a pleasure to serve as the Horticulture Chair for the past years. I will be giving up this responsibility to serve as the NCACAA Vice President. I would like to encourage all Agricultural Agents working in horticulture to apply for these awards.
