On August 16th, Jay Brintnall, a senior at Hiawatha High School, was awarded the Jon Daeschner Outstanding Youth Award presented by SBS Insurance Agency. This reward is given to an outstanding youth based on his or her involvement and support within the community and their school. Jay was nominated and selected based on his work in helping orchestrate and grow recycling programs in Hiawatha and the surrounding area and also his community involvement through 4-H and his school.
The Jon Daeschner Outstanding Youth Award was started in order to honor youth of any age that are involved in making their community better. Jon Daeschner, the award’s namesake, believed in his community and was always involved in some way trying to make it flourish. This award was set up in his name to honor a youth that is involved in the community via Businesses, Church, Family, School, etc. by volunteering their time.
Congratulations Jay!
