Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913

The Jake Etchart Scholarship Now Available

Jacob Etchart grew up spending summers at Fort Peck Lake with much of his time spent around the Fort Peck Theatre where his family was actively involved as volunteers. He loved watching his sisters Alexa and Christen and many friends perform on the Fort Peck stage. Jake played the role of The Real Professor Plum in Fort Peck’s production of CLUE.

​Jake’s family and friends established a theatre scholarship endowment in his memory which awards up to two $1,000 scholarships each year for undergraduate students pursuing a career in the Fine Arts.

To be eligible applicants must have a history of volunteering or participating in some program sponsored by the Fort Peck Fine Arts Council, be a full time undergraduate at an accredited university having completed at least one year and maintaining at least a 2.50 GPA in a Fine Arts related field.
