2024 Patty Runnels Women in Science Scholarship is Awarded
The Crawford County Conservation District announces Meadville resident Cailey Metter as the 2024 “Patty Runnels Women in Science Scholarship” recipient. Ms. Metter is a Biology Major at Vassar College.
This $500.00 Scholarship is given in honor of former Meadville resident Patty Runnels and funded by her family. Patty was active for about 40 years in the EASI (Environmental Alliance for Senior Involvement) group and later CCSEC (Crawford County Senior Environmental Corps), where she acted as Secretary for the members, working alongside her husband Dick Runnels. CCSEC, a water quality monitoring group, was administered through the Crawford County Conservation District, where monthly meetings were held and water testing events and macroinvertebrate studies took place.
Patty enjoyed volunteering at the Woodcock Creek Nature Center, assisting with some student field trips and environmental education programs. Additionally, she lent a hand at Allegheny College Creek Connections symposiums, as well as with Woodcock Lake and Pymatuning fish habitat building projects and annual Linesville Fish Hatchery open house events.
