Maren Corkery Wins Scholarships, Prize



Maren Corkery of W. Oneonta, N.Y., eldest daughter of Kevin and Sarah Fieg Corkery, is contemplating accepting a scholarship to Northeast Catholic College in Warner, N.H.

The seventeen-year-old, who recently got her driver's license, wrote an essay which won her a $1,000 annual scholarship from the school and an all-expenses paid trip to the Dominican Republic, the home country of her great-grandmother Marina. Maren was one of six recipients.

She also has been offered a $9,000 annual scholarship from the college, a $5,000 home-school annual scholarship and a $3,000 annual scholarship from the St. John Newman Society.

Maren is also considering attending school in Virginia.

Maren's grandfather is Greg Fieg.
