Three UMN Crookston students earn Masonic Lodge scholarship

Crookston Masonic Lodge recently awarded three University of Minnesota Crookston students with scholarships from proceeds of their annual vidalia onion sales event. Christopher Robert Carlson (sophomore - Fosston), Alex Kozitka (freshman - Crookston) and Jack Garmen (freshman - Crookston) each received $1,000 from the scholarship that's exclusive to UMN Crookston. Lodge member Lester Wilkens said their group sold 5,000 pounds of onions in two-and-a-half days.
