Junie Scholarship Award

Background Information

The Junie Scholarship Award provides financial assistance to student-athletes on the Bay High School men's basketball team, based on academic achievement and leadership qualities displayed on and off the court. The scholarship was created in 2017 by Quincy Hall, a Bay High School alumnus and owner of Imprint Repairs, in honor of his mother, June Bush. The hard work, persistence, and dedication she displayed on a day-to-day basis helped mold Quincy into the man he is today. The Junie Scholarship is Quincy's way of continuing her legacy and impacting the next generation.
