Help a Sonoma Valley HS senior pursue the arts in college.
In 2011, Lewis E. Cook III, 32, was fatally struck by a drunk driver while on vacation in Vail, CO. Later that year, his parents, Lewis and Susan Cook of Glen Ellen, CA, created this scholarship in their son’s memory in honor of his time spent at Sonoma Valley High School. From his first summer spent swimming while attending the SVHS summer program at the age of 10, through 8th grade summers swimming with the Sonoma Sea Dragons, Lewis attributed his ultimate All American swim status (four categories) to his SVHS coaches. Lewis went on to graduate from Princeton with honors in Economics, and was a Duke Scholar at Duke Business School.
Each year, a deserving senior receives a $1,000 grant to help in their pursuit of the arts in any form. Meet some of the recipients here. Your donation helps ensure we can continue and expand this tradition.
