Local university offers a $500 transfer scholarship

COW FOR A CAUSE: Los Amigos 4H Club member Alex Emerick showed off her cow, Espresso, after the Lakeview Junior High Cow Chip Bingo event on Nov. 11. The lucky winner, Scott Johnson, took home $1,000 in prize money. All money raised by ticket sales went toward the Orcutt Union School District Parent Teacher Student Association and Lakeview Junior High School clubs, which helped sell bingo tickets. “Everybody got a piece of the cow pie,” Stephanie Hull, PTSA vice president of fundraising, said.
