George, The Makenzee Christian George Softball Scholarship

The purpose of the Makenzee Christian George Memorial Scholarship is to honor her vivacious life by providing scholarship(s) for Winters Mill High School graduating senior(s) in Carroll County, Maryland who have been members of the Winters Mill High School Girls Softball Team for at least two years.

Makenzee died on January 3, 2017 as the result of an automobile accident. She is remembered by her classmates and teammates as a vibrant person who could make you happy with just a smile. Commitment to community and team work in the classroom and on the ball field were very important to Makenzee and this scholarship will be awarded to students who have the same work ethic and understanding of the impact community participation, community service and team sports have on the formation of character.

Makenzee was studying nursing at the Carroll County Career and Tech Center at the time of her death. She was also a member of the Maryland Army National Guard. Softball was her passion as she played ball for the Jaycees, Charles Carroll, North Carroll Hot Shots and received her varsity softball letter in her Freshman year at Winters Mill High School, a notable accomplishment.
