Go to enough Coupeville High School/Middle School/community sports events, and you’re sure to see John Fisken (and his camera) hanging around.
The photo whiz snaps away and sells his work on cascadeathletics.com. And, is nice enough to send a bunch of the pics my way, as we jointly tell the Canadian-owned “local” newspapers where they can shove it.
A percentage of the sales from his photos goes to fund scholarships for local student athletes.
He’s done it for Oak Harbor High School in years past and he’s launching his inaugural award(s) for CHS this spring.
Which is why it’s important to note that the deadline for applications — April 1 — fast approaches.
Wolf seniors can obtain an application from the CHS counseling office. The top five applicants will be interviewed.
Requirements for the scholarships (the pot is pushing $500, and could go higher with spring sports, so there will likely be two awards):
*Must have participated in at least two sports for all four years of high school
*Must have a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA
*Must NOT be getting any type of athletic scholarship from any college
*Must submit a 500 word essay, “How Sports Made Me A Better Person”
