Club during its annual picnic. The club selected Williams’ essay, “What I Would Do if I Were President,” as the winning essay. Williams is planning to attend Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, in the fall to study viticulture. Pictured are (left to right) Williams, accompanied by his mother, Holly Williams, scholar selection committee chairman Ann Fox, club president Justin Ruhge, and Santa Barbara County District Attorney Christine Stanley, who was keynote speaker at the picnic.
