The Bette Hopper
Scholarship Fund was established prior to the 1979 production
of "Guys and Dolls" to be awarded to a Friendswood
High School student who has participated in at least three FHS
musicals. The scholarship is in memory of Bette Hopper
who played the piano as accompanist for all the FHS musicals
from 1969 to 1975, except in 1971 when she had her first bout
with cancer. Between 1976 and 1978 she assisted during rehearsals
and tryouts. Mrs. Hopper was dedicated to the musicals, even
when she did not have a child attending the high school. She
lost her fight with cancer in the summer of 1978.
You must be a graduating senior, must be a
cast member of the current musical, must have participated in
three Friendswood High School musicals, must have been a cast
member in two of the three musicals participated in, must submit
a resume of their high school activities and a letter stating
why they should receive the scholarship. The final selection
will be made by a committee composed of the directors. The scholarship
will be presented following the second Saturday night's performance. |
