IN THE COMMUNITY Dutch Miller Kia recently participated in “Bowl for Kids’ Sake” by Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Tri-State was so much fun! Thank you for having us! In early July, a 50% scaled replica of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was on display at Dutch Miller of Ripley. This was West Virginia’s first time hosting the tribute. Miss West Virginia Organization Partners with Dutch Miller Auto Group The Miss West Virginia Organization, a state preliminary to the Miss America Organization (one of the largest scholarship organizations for young women across the country, allowing young women to further their education), has partnered with the Dutch Miller Auto Group of Huntington, WV. This group graciously sponsored a car for the newly crowned Miss West Virginia 2022, Elizabeth Lynch, and also awarded the organization a $10,000 scholarship. The Dutch Miller Auto Group sponsorship will assist Miss Lynch as she travels throughout the state during her tenure as Miss West Virginia, advocating her platform “Growing Up Growing Ag,” which promotes American farms and farmers’ markets and bridges the gap between producers and consumers. Miss Lynch will also help educate on agricultural careers and remind American consumers to “always thank a farmer.” Miss Lynch graduated from Delaware State University with a Bachelor’s of Science and recently completed her Master’s Degree in Animal and Poultry Science from West Virginia University. After her year of service as Miss West Virginia, she will attend the doctoral program at Texas Tech. It is through scholarships and sponsors – like Chris Miller at the Dutch Miller Auto Group – that assist Miss Lynch and her peers to obtain their college goals debt free. wvcar.com 34 WVADA
